All you guys/gals out there that switched over to the serp belt. How did you guys run your radiator hoses? Do I just need to go and get the ones for a newer truck? Thanks

Look around find someone with a silverado P/U with a serp setup. Pop the hood check the thermostat housing. If it points the right direction for your application go to the parts store & get that upper hose. That is the safest way to insure you have the correct application.

You may need the swivel thermostat housing before you are happy with it. Otherwise the upper hose don't like that bracket much.

For the top I used a #7368 from NAPA. It is a stock chevy hose (I just don't know which Chevy). For the bottom I used a bendable convoluted steel hose.
