Default Need help locating part for 2.5. steel coolant line/hose that runs behind head! ?

Help. I have a 94 Dakota 2.5....There is a steel coolant line, which has rubber hose crimped on each end, that starts at the thermostat housing, runs behind the head , and reconnects back to the head on opposite side. I cannot find this part anywhere on the 94 dakota pdf nor can napa, oriellys or Advance locate the part. Also i have searched the net for this hose and cannot locate any info ab it. Can anyone please help me with locating this line/hose or know if i can just use universal hi temp hose? any help greatly appreciated! Thanks

I'm assuming it is this back hose.


The parts manual does have it listed. Number 30. Part #4343 713
Probably dealer only for that specific hose. I say just cut off the crimp and the hose off of the tube and buy heater hose and use strong clamps to hold it on.

Yes yes That is it. Sorry the pdf i downloaded didnt have that hose labeled as well as your exploded view. but yes that is it. I had already purchased 3 foot of htr hose, so ima jump on that and see how it works out. Hose clamps should hold seeing that it shouldnt be that much pressure running thru that line. Il let you know how it works out. THANKSS a bunch.. Wish everyone was this helpful.
