RickM1973 0 #1 Posted 1 hour ago Good morning, I have a 1999 Toro/Wheelhorse 523Dxi with the Daihatsu Diesel engine. The tractor itself is in great shape but starting to show its age.This past spring I was looking for a 52" mower deck for it to no avail. Now I wanted to relagate the tractor to winter use with the snowthrower I have for it. The upper radiator hose is beginning to swell and crack. I have tried multiple sources to find the hose and keep getting the response that it is discontinued and no longer available. I have gone through Advance auto and O'reilly auto parts and can't even get close. I wanted to see if there happened to be anyone out there that might have the parts. Upper hose Part # 95-4266 Lower Hose Part # 95-4267 The upper hose is the critical one I really need. Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 13,217 #2 Posted 26 minutes ago Welcome! Do you have an Automotive Jobber near you that has mostly Commercial Accounts - garages , fleet truck service, etc? Like NAPA. Ask if they can do a matchup to your hose in question. Years ago, I needed a specific hose for an engine swap in an old car - the ID on one end was different than the other. The sales person told me that it looked like what I needed was a section of an early Monte Carlo upper hose - that hose was about 2-1/2 feet long with molded bends. Sure enough, the perfect fit that I needed was just a portion of it. Try to ask a more senior person there, not the youngster (though the kid may surprize you). My . Or check with some of the Forum Vendors - and place an ad in the Classified Wanted section with the above info... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
