Hello I been trying to clean up my engine bay and I'm in bad need of new hoses, well the easy ones like the upper and lower radiator hoses and the pcv hose I have found and replaced, but like the brake booster hose and heater hoses and all the other hoses that I can't name if anyone can please tell me the best way to find the proper hose I would like to know what Yall did and the beat places to get these

 

If all else fails, the dealership.

Otherwise, bring the hose into the parts place and they can find the best match. Often it's a matter of getting a universal hose of the right diameter and basic shape, and cutting it to size.

I know that's hard if it's your only vehicle. They'd probably love to get out from behind the counter and come look under your hood to see the hose you're trying to replace. Then they can find something.

 

Yeah I went to AutoZone yesterday and tried to get some help but like always they have someone working there that don't even know how to change there own oil so I figured I would ask some fellow yota techers for some help cause I'm gonna tell you them people they have working there don't know ****

 

I won't step foot in Autozone unless it's the only store in a town I'm broken down in.

I usually go to Napa or the dealership, or go through RockAuto or something online.

 

Well if anyone else has any info please let me know

 

I just got my radiator hoses at an O'Reilleys in Dallas, OR. The hoses I bought didn't look much like what I pulled off the truck, until I realized that I needed to cut off and throw away 2/3 of the new hose. They must try hard to make one part fit many applications. Works for me.

While we're on the topic, is the brake booster vacuum hose a shaped hose? Mine looks like one.
