    Has anyone used one of these kits from Jeg's Part #720-11015B?
    I am going to use it on lower rad because it is flexible and comes with adapters for different size hose ends!

    Should solve my problem with the aluminum rad lower hose points in upward direction and binds!

    I pulled my radiator, took it to a radiator shop and had them turn the lower outlet over. Now it points slightly down and no longer has and conflicts with the belts, frame, etc. Cost $10.

    Just an idea.
