Nice replacement part

Radiator leak and 105K on the truck made me replace everything in the cooling system. It was one of the items that was replaced.

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Only available in black

Fits our 2002 Tundra Fine

Hose fits our 2002 Tundra perfectly. Unfortunately my wife smashed it two days after replacing a new radiator, hoses, thermostat, coolant and oil.

Pros
  • Build Quality
Cons
  • Operating Speed

less coverage good for belts, hoses and pulleys

OEM radiator hose had cosmetic packaging this gate does not have but is fully functional. The tubing may kink if not cut to the correct length. It works and looks more like the hoses used in old classic cars. The price is great and it looks good.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • very expensive

Product packaging due to carelessness

The product arrived in a small box that had to be folded in half. A crack developed at the crease two weeks after installation and operation under normal driving conditions. Not only did it cost me time to repair, but also to buy coolant for my car. Don't buy from Revain.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Updates

Excellent radiator hoses.

Got it on my 2001 Tundra with no problems. Gates hoses are very good. I only use OEM or Gates. I prefer Amazon to parts store :) A lot of people don't change hoses or coolant anymore even if the truck is 200-300k. It's cheap, peace of mind and maintenance because of that. Here are the part numbers for the top and bottom. Gates Radiator Coolant Hose 21660 Gates 23018 Cast Iron Coolant Hose

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I don't remember

Hose expansion issues

I just changed my rating to 1 star, something is wrong with these hoses, the hose I ordered has expanded so much in the heat that it is stuck to the Pulley rubbed before punctured the hose, luckily I caught it when I was at a gas station and there was an auto parts store nearby, but luckily I got a different Gates hose and it was the same done, i had to cut 2 inches from the bottom of the hose to solve the problem when it stretches, the top hose i ordered stretches like crazy when it gets hotโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
