Have tried search but couldnt find nething similiar to mine. I have a coolant leak that runs by the right front wheel, looks like the hoses are leaking, since i had water pump, fan, thermostat and radiator fixed, was wondering how hard it is to replace those hoses? I have 2000 dodge 5.9 nebody have done it? is it just replace or do i have to remove a lot of stuff?

 

Replacing the rad hoses is pretty easy, nothing to remove as I recall. Just need to drain the coolant out first.

 

SOunds pretty simple have nice weather this week gonna do it thanks for the tip silver, i would hate to shower in coolant.

 

Bah! I usually remove the clamp from the lower hose leading to the water pump and then remove it from the top side of the engine. A large container underneath captures everything and only a minimal amount gets on my hands. It washes off easily!

 

Last time I did it, I jiust punctured the lower radiator hose right over a bucket. Then opened the radiator cap and let it drain out the puncture. Was really easy and clean that way, and no big deal since I was replacing that hose anyway.
