good thick walls with woven padding

Arrived on time, well packaged, good thick walls with woven padding, seems strong and flexible and very good build quality, I will definitely use the same product again from the same seller to buy

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • low repairability

Be sure to check the hose bends first

The lower hose will not work on a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7L as the website may assume it will fit. It is not bent properly as you can see in the photos. I attached it to the radiator but it could not be attached to the thermostat housing.

Pros
  • Consistent Test Results
Cons
  • Minor

Would I buy again - Radiator

I use a lot of hoses on my YT channel when I fix cars and the hoses almost always need to be replaced as I usually buy cars with over 120,000 miles on the odometer. I buy a lot of Gates hoses and am always satisfied. Check my username here on YT! I used this hose on a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4.

Pros
  • Easy to assemble
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Perfect fit for my 2008 Dodge Ram

I decided to swap the upper and lower radiator hoses when replacing the radiator and it replaced the factory hose perfectly. I used screws to tighten the clamps, not stupid Dodge spring clamps. It was a great price compared to the $30 hose at my local auto parts store. The hose feels solid and slides right into place. I checked the Gates website for hoses for my 2008 Ram and then came to Revain to buy them. I wanted to make sure I had the correct hoses and both Revain and Gates gave me the same

Pros
  • High test scores for grip and durability
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
