Mishimoto radiator hose issues

[Zach Baumann]

Hello all, I have always used mishimoto radiator hoses in the car back when it was a stock 06 and now that I upgraded to the 07+ coolant crossover. The issue I have is my lower hose gets kinked when I put it in place. The same happened when I had the stock crossover on too and the older hoses. Is there a known fox for this? Thanks

I stopped using the molded Mishimoto hoses on my 2010 after finding cracks around the lower branch. Went with the correct FoMoCo sectioned hose for a 2010 and it fits like a glove. The red silicone hose was pretty but not worth risking a motor.

Very True

OEM parts... I always try to use them. Meanwhile I stock a lot of parts... from a OEM clutch ...lower control arms ( Ford Racing ) all coolant /heater hoses ( Motorcraft ) clutch master from a 13 GTKR.... Wheel bearings ( Timken ) and so on... and so on...

I own also 3 old Alfa Romeo. Same issue here.... a lot of "aftermarket " JUNK in the market.
OEM parts - will save my day......
