Part number 22865 is shaped to follow the original hose path, helping maintain proper coolant flow and a clean installation on the 1996-1998 Mazda MPV, upper radiator hose location. The molded design and EPDM material support a factory-style replacement for vehicles that need a formed hose rather than a universal cut-to-fit part. This part cross-references Four Seasons 66571 for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Problems It Can Address\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCracked or hardened upper radiator hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoolant seepage at the hose body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoss of hose shape from heat and age\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproper fit from a straight universal hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCooling-system service on a 1996-1998 Mazda MPV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVerify hose routing, end diameters, and centerline length before installation.
