Review on πŸ”Œ Mishimoto 2008-2010 Ford 6.4 Powerstroke MMHOSE-F2D-08BK Black Silicone Radiator Hose Kit by Dave Phobia

Revainrating 5 out of 5

No heat sink on radiator

The hoses are installed on my truck and are working fine. The price can be intimidating, but when you compare stock hoses or quality replacement parts, they're only a few dollars more than all three. Background: I took the truck to the dealer (as part of my extended warranty) because I didn't have a heater when I was clearing snow this winter. They diagnosed low coolant due to a leaking radiator hose. The dealer said my bumper to bumper warranty does not cover this repair. They offered me over $600 to replace a leaking hose and flush the coolant. I asked unsuccessfully if the hoses were in front or behind the bumpers. :(I left the dealership, researched online and found out how difficult it is to replace these hoses. I also read that there was a recall or manufacturer recommendation for this repair, but I had no luck finding it. I knew I, or my friends, could do this repair. After looking at stock and quality aftermarket hoses, I bought Mishimoto hoses and a skinny friend helped me install them. But now I have the hoses comes with a lifetime warranty and you probably won't have to worry about it anymore The worst part was removing the inner fender to access the lower triple clamp/hose clamp on the engine side.

Pros
  • Belts, hoses and pulleys
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
