Gates 97-03 Dodge Dakota V-6 3.9L Heater To Connector Molded Heater Hose

When your 1997-2003 Dodge Dakota's heater stops blowing warm air, a cracked or leaking heater hose is often the culprit. This molded heater hose from Gates is specifically designed to connect the heater core to the engine's cooling system, allowing hot coolant to circulate and warm your cabin.

Gates uses a heat and ozone resistant synthetic rubber construction for this hose, similar to what the original equipment uses. This means it's built to withstand the high temperatures and harsh conditions found under the hood, resisting premature cracking and swelling. Its molded shape ensures it follows the factory routing precisely, making installation straightforward without needing to fight a stiff, universal hose.

This hose is a direct replacement for the original, ensuring a proper fit and function for your 3.9L V-6 engine. Make sure to check your other cooling system components while you're in there; a failing water pump or thermostat can also affect heater performance.
