I had quite a time trying to find a lower hose for mine. If this thread goes much further somebody will suggest the flex hose that "fits anything". It doesn't fit mine - the curviture is too sharp and the thing tries to crease. And it still rubs the frame.

The important thing to note is whether the lower connection on your radiator protudes straight out towards the tail gate or whether it angles up 45 degrees towards the windsheild. Mine angles up. I tried about 5 hoses, all suggested by the board, and none have worked yet.

So if you find one that fits please post here. :-)
