Is there any information printed on the old hoses? I've had good luck finding filter replacements for MVs using data printed on the filters. I've also had good luck with radiator hoses on trucks by taking them to a truck parts supply house and matching them up.

Whoops your right it is an A2 hose. Sorry fr the not helpful post on my end!

I just did mine last night (upper ones, lower is in good shape). I just went to the auto parts store and bought two random 2"ID hoses that had 90 degree bends in them, cut them up, and put them on the truck. I ragged the truck around tonight to make sure the would hold... They did.

FYI

One of the hoses I got wasn't a total 90 degree bend, but it was all the parts store had. You can flip the pipe over when reinstalling to accomodate a bend on the radiator side that is not quite a 90.

went to auto store, their hoses were not as thick and had the wrong bends
I'm going to the cat dealer to see what they have
