ZJ 4.0 Lower Radiator Hose

Used to replace a leaking lower radiator hose on my '98 Jeep ZJ Grand Cherokee with 4.0 I6 engine. Came with a really nice knurled plastic protective sleeve to prevent wear on the stabilizer bar if they touch. The hose was a slightly different shape than the hose I removed from the car, but I had no trouble connecting it to the radiator and water pump, maybe it's just a manufacturer difference. If you are replacing this hose and haven't already done the top hose I would recommend doing it at the same time, Gates 21970 worked great in my jeep. I had to use spring clamp pliers because the ends of the hose ended up in very awkward places to work with.

Pros
  • Belts, Hoses & Pulleys
Cons
  • Quick Start Manual
