Detailed Product Description
The Dayco Curved Radiator Hose 70608 is engineered to meet the cooling system demands of select Ford Econoline vans. Made from EPDM, a synthetic rubber known for its resistance to heat, ozone, and coolant chemicals, this hose maintains integrity under typical engine operating conditions. The dual inside diameter design, with one end measuring 2 inches and the other 2 1/4 inches, allows for a secure connection between different radiator and engine fittings.

The trunk height of 13 7/8 inches ensures proper routing and fitment within the engine bay of the specified Ford models.
