O'Reillys had them last summer, on the shelf. I didn't buy them,
though, so they might have come from somewhere else, but they were
not special order.

Peter,
Where did you get the hoses?
I'm doing this as preventative maintenance.
John,
I don't know where you can get Goodyear hoses?
Craig,
Thanks for the suggestion. Looks like heater supply, heater
return, upper
radiator, and lower radiator hoses will set me back about $110 plus
shipping and tax. I'm not sure what Rusty could do.

I've had better luck with Goodyear hoses; they fit MUCH better
than the
gates ones, and look spot-on compared to dealer hoses.
Gates pre-formed hoses for some applications were off even 20
years ago
(IIRC, upper radiator hose for an 82 Ford LTD (midsize, not
fullsize), 3800
V6.)

I tried using a length of Gates heater hose, but because of the
bends,
the hose either kinks or narrows by the heater core. I could
plumb in
a 45 degree fitting, I but found the dealer part numbers for these
hoses.
Call Rusty at 1-800-741-5252 and give him the part numbers. Maybe
he can
get them for you (and probably for less, too).
