Gates 98-02 Dodge Diesel Molded Upper Coolant Radiator Hose

This molded upper radiator hose from Gates is specifically shaped for your 1998-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 or 3500 with a diesel engine. It's constructed from a heat-resistant EPDM rubber compound, which is crucial for handling the higher temperatures and pressures found in diesel cooling systems compared to gasoline engines. The molded design means it follows the exact bends and curves needed to connect your radiator to the engine, ensuring a clean installation without any kinks or strain.

Gates uses a reinforced construction with polyester cord plies to give this hose the strength it needs to resist swelling and bursting under pressure. This well-built hose is designed to be a direct replacement for your original equipment, making the replacement process straightforward. Proper coolant flow is essential for keeping your diesel engine running cool, and this hose is built to maintain that flow reliably.
