Product Details

The Dayco Curved Radiator Hose line is built for applications that require a formed hose shape and accurate end sizing. Part number 70960 is an upper radiator coolant hose with a curved profile, EPDM material, and dual inside diameters to match the cooling-system connections used on select vehicles. This hose is listed for 2002-2007 Saturn Vue, 1990-1994 Mitsubishi Mighty Max, 1989-1994 Mitsubishi Montero, 1990-1991 Dodge Ram 50, and multiple Ford and Mercury models including Mustang, Capri, Fairmont, Zephyr, Cougar, Thunderbird, LTD, and Marquis.

This part cross-references ACDelco 20104S and Gates 21084 for the same application. Dayco 70960 is a direct-fit style replacement for upper radiator hose service where the original hose follows a curved path and requires the specified dual I.D. sizing.

Common Uses

  • Replacing a cracked or softened upper radiator hose
  • Restoring coolant flow after hose swelling or collapse
  • Addressing coolant seepage at the hose connection points
  • Correcting fitment on vehicles that use a formed upper hose route
  • Servicing cooling-system leaks on Ford Mustang, Mercury Capri, and Saturn Vue applications

Installation Notes

Verify the end diameters and routing before installation, especially on vehicles with and without air conditioning where fitment notes differ. Inspect hose clamps, radiator necks, and thermostat housing connections for wear or corrosion before installing the new hose. Confirm the hose follows the original curved path without twisting so the cooling system seals properly.

Quality Assurance

Dayco lists this hose to SAE J20R4 Class D-1 and SAE J1684 Type EC standards, supporting its use in coolant-system service for the specified applications.
