I went to NAPA (the real parts store) and i got the exact same 2" hose that was on my Suburban. It happened to be a coolant hose according to the description. It was used as the fuel hose because it doesn't have a constant presence of fuel running thru it. When i spoke to the original owner of the suburban i bought, he told me that hose had been in place for about 12 years. The only reason i took it off was to swap bodies and the hose wouldn't come off. It was still very pliable and no cracks or anything wrong with it.

I tried the other parts stores, and they either didn't have the exact same size hose. And the closest size they had would only sell it in 3' lenghts.

Try NAPA!
