Or is this something you should have a radiator shop perform?

    Check this out now...it could get big ugly big quick! Make sure that rad neck isn't cracked....if it's the hose, change them. Do it yourself, it's nothing...throw in a flush while you're at it.

    So a red set for $125 will be available when? The t clamps should be easy to attain right?

    Ill have Red in a few weeks
    currently have black and blue on hand...
    tbolts are a little overkill, you can actually
    damage your outlets if you where to overtighten them...
    I suggest using new std worm clamps or even the factory'
    clamps are very nice, new or used.

    are there any plans to have green "in the works"?, I realize you don't have them now but is it like not going to happen or just not for a few months,
    best guess if you don't know, thanks!

    Thumbs up Just fitted my Silicone Hoses....

    They fit VERY well...perfect replica of originals contours

    Only issue was original clamps would not fit round new hoses.
    Silicone hoses a bit bigger OD....hence hose clamps .


    .







    Love the look.....and "Vehi-Cross-Az" was a pleasure to deal with.

    looks like the lower is the same, but I couldnt verify
    the upper.
    Id call the local Isuzu dealer and ask them if they are
    the same to be sure.
