Review on Gates 23556 Upper Radiator Hose by Andre Young

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The hose is a little longer than the factory, had to be replaced.

The hose is slightly longer than the original one I replaced, had to cut less than 1/2 inch to fit easily, only gripe is that it doesn't fit in the mount of my 01 Durango which I have 2 zips used for saving, I don't create anything special either. The only advice I can give to anyone who has had this replaced due to car overheating or just a hose rupture while driving is to have at least 2 gallons of coolant and do a 3 car fill cycle (warm up/cool down - refuel). . After replacing mine I figured I had other problems. I was losing more coolant than I expected and I had to follow this to get back up to speed
