Xplorer water heater to engine hoses.

Does anyone with a Dodge Xplorer that has the heat exchanger tank that heats the water when you drive, know where to get the black hoses that go from the tank all the way to the engine?
  • Automotive heater hose.......buy it by the foot.

    Check the auto parts stores
  • This hose has heated engine water and probably antifreeze in it. I think it will have to meet a temperature / pressure spec
  • I would expect Home Depot to have something suitable. Or go to a NAPA store and see what they have in a silicone rubber hose. They sell it in bulk lengths in various diameters for truck hot water systems. It will never wear out unless it's severely rubbing on something.
