[@LyftzYT]

Thank you! The plastic bit on my completely snapped, this video was a life saver 🤣

[@SlabsYT]

STOP. This is the video you’re looking for! Thanks man, this is exactly what I was looking for

[@BRUHHH2829]

What’s the part number??

[@SlabsYT]

@@BRUHHH2829 KH570 for the inlet, which is what went out on mine. I also ordered the outlet which is part # KH573 . I got OEM motorcraft parts so they’re a bit more expensive than the doorman part he linked in the description.

Thank you for this video. Holy cow the removal of that quick clip at the firewall is an exercise in character development.

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Yeah it’s not the easiest to see or get your hands back there that’s why I was having trouble filming that part.

[@OHIOBOYFORTRUMP2024]

Thank you for this video ,I pulled in my driveway today and mine blew out all the way so because of this video it’s already fixed for work tomorrow,THANK YOU

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

That’s awesome, I appreciate the feedback brother!

[@leogflames]

Just got back from vacation, noticed a leak, freaking hose cracked/dryrotted, couldn’t find any parts locally on a Sunday, but this will help me out come Tuesday. Thanks!

[@chrisangner8684]

Thank you! Giving me that part number saved me $700 at the dealership.

Man I've been looking for this exact video, replacing that hose this evening. Wasn't sure on the firewall side of the hose assembly, glad to see its the same quick connect as the block side.

This is the best video on this heater hose! Thank you!

[@ARMANDO-c6h]

Thank you very much I really appreciate you showing how to do this. Have a blessed day

[@alcuinrajan6762]

TY so much. Very helpful and detailed instructions.

[@extremeskeighter]

some info Don't know about the 2014 and prior, 2015 and up have a 3/4 hose and the fitting is 3/4 Fitting Dorman 90 degree 800-418 is 3/4 push to 3/4 hose or 800-411 is a straight if preferred, I believe 90 is better because the hose pulls hard on that fitting causing fatigue. 1in PEX barb has 3/4 OD clamps Splice the hose as needed might have add short piece or may be not depending on the splice location Info Dorman 800-404 is a straight 3/4 push to 1/2 hose Dorman 800-403 is a straight 1/2 push to 1/2 hose

[@timtol143]

Since it's just the o rings that looses it's ability to seal, can we just replace just that?

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

You can but you’d have to find the correct one and I don’t know who sells it. I figure it’s just safer to replace the whole hose that way your getting new rubber as well

[@dronetasticvoyage]

Great video. Thank you.

[@CarlosHernandez-zr5cz]

Is the doorman hose still holding up ?

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Still going strong no issues.

[@billseay6399]

Hey thanks again my brother love it

[@GergC0521]

Life saver!

[@GergC0521]

I had no success being able to unclip the back so I reached in with a Dremel with a mini saw blade and cut it off. Did it carefully so as not to cut the metal nipple.

[@hunterdentonrowland3355]

What should I do if the pick that is by the motor end if it keeps leaking

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

You may need to replace it with this amzn.to/3wDCFO5

What year is this truck

[@Kevin09210]

At that age, I would replace all of those hoses.

[@hancowman7622]

That pink coolant shouldn't go in a container it should go in the drain. The drain on the ground. You should run motorcraft yellow. That's the update.

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

You are correct motorcraft has switched back to the yellow coolant but if you keep up on coolant changes you won’t have any issues running the orange still.

Thank you sir!!
