Radiator/heater hoses...

[nosajwp]

Where is a good place, other than a dealership, to buy the upper and lower radiator hoses and both heater hoses for a late model 4.0L? Are the heater hoses universal, or do they come with all the right bends in them?

Don't know about aftermarket quality, I buy OEM from the dealer for that stuff, that way I know they fit, have the spring in the lower hose, outside hose protectors and both heater hoses have the clamps already installed. Now if I was going to do something like Russell stainless or something fancy it might be a different story...
If you do go aftermarket make sure the lower hose has the anti-collapse spring in it, to me a ridged universal hose does not cut it....

I got a good, internal spring, fitted hoses at O'reily. Heck, they even came with a warranty.
