Product Details

Gates 24451 is a molded coolant hose engineered for vehicles that use integrated cooling-system components rather than a simple straight hose. The modular design includes a branch and a female quick connector, helping match the original hose layout used on the vehicle. Gates builds this hose to application-specific dimensions, including a 1.47 in. end 1 inside diameter, 1.67 in. end 2 inside diameter, and 0.76 in. branch connections, with a molded centerline length of 24.25 in. The hose is made from EPDM, plastic, and steel for use in the engine cooling circuit.

This part cross-references Bosch 17105 and Continental 67129 for the same application. It is a fitment-based replacement for lower radiator hose service on the Ford F-150 and Lincoln Mark LT, and the Gates 24451 part number is commonly used when replacing an OE-style modular coolant hose assembly.

Common Cooling System Issues It Can Address

• Lower radiator hose leakage
• Cracked or hardened hose material
• Damaged quick-connect hose connection
• Improper hose routing after prior repair
• Coolant loss from a worn molded hose assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s lower hose routing, connector style, and end diameters before installation. Because this is a molded modular hose assembly, correct alignment with the factory cooling layout is important for a proper seal and fit. Inspect adjoining fittings and mating surfaces for wear, corrosion, or residue before installing the new hose.

Quality Assurance

Gates is a recognized automotive aftermarket supplier in modular coolant hose assemblies, and this hose is manufactured to application-specific OE-style requirements for the listed vehicles.
