I think the heater hoses for LX 5.0L's are available as a repro????

Can the LH Heater hoses still be sourced brand new???

[308 Sunbird]

Hopefully we can get Mick (sstorana) to make these for us Brad.
He does pollution LX.

Ive got this one that I guess I could re-use.... Would be nice to have two new ones though!

[hanra]

What is the difference between the pre/post ADR27A heater hoses?

[dattoman]

Get me the genuine #;s Brad...I'll check it

[hanra]

Cool man!!!

Heater inlet to manifold: 9928623
Heater outlet to water pump: 9928598

[dattoman]

Hmm... not looking good for those numbers mate

Best ask Mick again... he keeps threatening early hoses for ADR27

[hanra]

Bugger... Really....

Ill send Mick an email..

Ill give the local parts shop a call to just to confuse them.

[hanra]

Got onto Mick. No go. Rang a few local shops round town who all just referenced back to the Mackay Rubber book which its not listed in. So there ya go. Pretty sad state of affairs when you cant buy a bloody heater hose.....

[308 Sunbird]

Quite a few odd shaped heater hoses out there. Might be able to find something close.

[hanra]

Yeah I know... just finding a shop up here that has them that I can dig through em.... otherwise its guess work over the net....

[dattoman]

I have sold older Mackay and Dayco books....I'll see what I can come up with

[hanra]

Thanks datto. That would be a great help. I was thinking perhaps I could use one of Micks hoses and cut it down so it goes from the heater to manifold on the passenger side? Just won't have the moulded bend where it goes on manifold. But should sit nice where it fits to heater.

[dattoman]

Thats probably going to be your option... a mix and match
My old 2003 Mackay book doesn't specifically list those part #'s but does have others listed... still looking for older books I know I have

[dattoman]

OK...old Mackay #'s
CH1124 from water pump to heater

Thats just a suggestion.... not one thats listed

None of my Gates , MacKay,Dayco or Repco catalogues list any heater hoses for V8 Toranas... dated all the way back to 1996

So guess your on your own on this one mate

[hanra]

Thanks for trying Datto, the hose from water pump to heater core is in decent condition, Ive given it a good clean up. Ill just have to get creative with the hose from the manifold to heater core.

[hanra]

Its quite surprising to see how this other original hose went! Came straight out of the heater then went straight up and over the dizzy, then along the passenger side rocker cover to the manifold... Ive got no hope of finding anything that sorta shape... Had a dig through the hose bins at Supercheap.... I know the routing of it is totally wrong but it fits neatly... So I hope it will be ok?

Not my car, not my photos....







This was how I was intending to do.....
