Radiator Hose Clamp Size (1 Viewer)

[Cruzerman]

About to replace much of the cooling system and am ordering parts. What size hose clamps do I need for the upper and lower radiator hoses? Are the Breeze clamps worth their ridiculous price? Is there another good clamp to use? TIA

I used for all small clamps Breeze clamps and they are excellent keeping the rubber without digging into it, got them from @NLXTACY

I used for the large rad pipes the regular new clamps I got with the fancy silicon set I yanked out after a few months this was a mistake they dug into the rubber and i will have to buy new ones @NLXTACY has a set of the large Breeze clamps with acceptable price I used the regular clams because I was in the middle of work and I didn't think ahead

Any reason I can't re-use the factory clamps or should I replace? And if replace, part numbers?

@NLXTACY sells them. Support a MUD vendor.

I see no reason not to use the original clamps provided that they show no damage, are straight and hold proper tension. If you have leaks then replace them.
