Fig. 3F: Upper Radiator Hose

Carefully remove the cut hose from the quick-

release fitting. (See Fig. 3F)

Cut the hose at the approximate middle of the 90°

bend, creating a 45° bend. Reinstall it onto the

quick-release fitting, orient it as shown, and

secure with an included #28 worm gear clamp.

Insert the Ø1.5” stainless steel hose union into the

open end and secure with an included #28 worm

gear clamp. (See Fig. 3G-1) When properly

assembled with the quick-release temporarily

reconnected, the stainless steel union should

point slightly toward the passenger side from

straight down. (See Fig. 3G-2)

Locate the included Ø1.5” x 90° rubber hose.

Slide the shorter leg over the exposed end of the

stainless steel hose union and orient as shown,

completely covering the union. When properly

assembled with the quick-release temporarily

reconnected, the long leg of this hose should

point straight toward the passenger side (See Fig.

3H). Slide a segment of the included Ø1.5” black

flex braid abrasion sleeve around each straight

portion of the hose as shown.
