Hi guys,

can anyone post a picture of the water pipes that run from the engine forward to the radiator on a T350?

I don't have any pipes myself and am struggling with the silicon hose kit I bought because I don't have what I assume is stainless steel joiner pieces to connect the rubber elbows together.

Anyone know where I can get the steel joiner sleaves?

Thanks,
Chris

Having done what you have to the Tamora, I would call Tim at ACT products, he is probably best suited to advise and supply what you need.....

don't you need a sort end like this?

otherwise the hose will/can blow off as many turbo hoses do and or heater pipes without that rim.

There are different types of pipes, it depends if you have an early model with upright radiator or the later type with the horizontal rad.

If the radiator is layed down they will fit and they will be fine without the expanded ends. I have these on my car.

Mijtec,

are you sure? Is your car a Sag? The Sag has the oil cooler in a different position and the hoses run over the top of the chassis tubes rather than through them.

Not the easiest of things to photo, especially when you have a huge air intake in the way! wink

Exhaust side:





Nearside (through the gap in the bonnet):





Offside (note the large blue air intake hose which you probably won't have!):
