WTB PS cooler hose?

[kickinasphalt383]

I am trying to install a Flex-A-Lite PS cooler (same as trans/engine cooler) and the hose that was provided is not long enough. so i went to 4 auto parts stores to find a hose. they have the correct I.D. hose but the auto parts hose is not as thick. can i get away with using the thinner stuff or do i have to find the thicker hose somewhere? and if so where?

I did the same thing with a trans cooler from an automatic on my power steering also. I ran the parts house stuff, from the low pressure side of the steering box through the cooler, then back to the return side of the pump and I have never had a problem with it. I also like the extra capacity you get. Hope this helps.

Use Fuel Injection hose. This is rated from 40 to 80 PSI. Regular hose, (I think) is only rated to 20 PSI.
