Review on Gates 20609 Lower Radiator Hose by Jason Sullivan

I have a Ford f150 XL 4.9 95 car. to which it should match. The Gates item I received had the correct part number and looked very similar to the original, except both "legs" of the hose were noticeably shorter than the original, making installation impossible. After struggling with this for a whole day, I shopped at a local store. I went to O'Reillys first and tried their MasterPro 20609 hose which was a little longer but still too short. Finally, the AutoZones Dayco B 71873 hose was an exact fit and installed exactly like the original. The Gates upper hose I ordered from Revain (below) fits and mounts perfectly.
