This kit is perfect for those seeking a direct-fit, long-lasting replacement that maintains OEM specifications while delivering superior performance.

Key Features

Crafted with precision and durability in mind, the HPS Silicone Radiator Hoses Kit offers several advantages over standard rubber hoses:

• Premium-grade, high-heat resistant reinforced silicone construction
• Engineered with exact bends and curves for perfect OEM fitment
• Includes 100% stainless steel non-perforated embossed hose clamps that prevent damage to the hoses during installation
• Compatible with OEM part numbers 55056876AB and 55056848AB for seamless replacement
• Race-proven design built to withstand extreme temperatures up to 350°F (177°C)
• Resistant to cracking, collapsing, and coolant leaks common in aging rubber hoses
• Long-lasting quality ensures prolonged exposure to under-hood heat and coolant temperatures without degradation
• Recommended regular coolant level checks due to higher water permeation rate compared to EPDM rubber hoses

Construction & Design

The hoses are constructed from reinforced silicone, a material known for its superior heat resistance and flexibility compared to traditional rubber. This silicone compound is designed to endure the harsh thermal environment of the engine bay, maintaining structural integrity even under prolonged exposure to coolant and engine heat. The hoses feature precise bends and contours that match the original factory hoses, ensuring a hassle-free installation without the need for modifications.

Each hose clamp included in the kit is made from 100% stainless steel and embossed to avoid cutting into the silicone, providing a secure and damage-free seal. This combination of materials and design results in a product that not only performs reliably but also extends the service life of your vehicle’s cooling system components.

Installation & Fitment

The HPS Silicone Radiator Hoses Kit is designed as a direct OEM replacement for Dodge Ram and Ram 1500 trucks with the 4.7L V8 engine from 2002 to 2010 and 2011 to 2018 model years. Installation is straightforward and requires no special tools or modifications. The included stainless steel clamps simplify securing the hoses, ensuring a tight fit that prevents leaks and coolant loss.

Because the hoses are molded to match factory specifications, they install easily onto existing radiator and engine fittings. This kit is an excellent upgrade for anyone experiencing issues with cracked or collapsed OEM rubber hoses or looking to improve the durability of their cooling system.
