What is the main purpose of the upper radiator hose?

The upper radiator hose carries hot coolant from the engine to the radiator for cooling. It's a critical component in your vehicle's cooling system, helping to prevent engine overheating.

How do I know if my upper radiator hose needs replacing?

Look for visible signs of wear such as cracks, swelling, or hardening. Leaks around the hose connections or a persistent sweet smell of coolant can also indicate a problem.

Does this hose come with clamps?

This Gates coolant hose (Part# 22331) does not include installation clamps. You will need to use your existing clamps or purchase new ones separately.
