Wehrli Aluminum Upper Coolant Pipe
2013–2018 Ram 2500 / 3500 6.7L Diesel
Part #: WCF100517-BR
Overview
The Wehrli Aluminum Upper Coolant Pipe is a direct replacement for the OEM rubber upper coolant hose found on 2013 to 2018 Ram 2500 and 3500 heavy-duty trucks equipped with the 6.7L Cummins diesel engine. Designed to improve durability and reliability, this aluminum pipe replaces the factory rubber hose that connects to the radiator inlet. It is powder coated in a vibrant Bengal Red finish, adding a touch of style under the hood while providing superior resistance to heat and wear. This part is engineered for use with the OEM Ram radiator to ensure proper fitment and optimal cooling system performance.
Ideal for diesel truck owners looking to upgrade their cooling system components, the Wehrli Aluminum Upper Coolant Pipe offers enhanced longevity and a clean, professional appearance. It is especially suited for those who want to avoid the common issues associated with rubber hoses such as cracking, swelling, or premature failure.
Key Features
Built to meet the demands of heavy-duty diesel applications, this upper coolant pipe offers several key benefits:
- Direct OEM replacement for the upper radiator hose on 2013–2018 Ram 2500/3500 6.7L Cummins trucks
- Constructed from high-quality aluminum for superior strength and heat resistance
- Powder coated in Bengal Red for corrosion protection and enhanced engine bay aesthetics
- Improves cooling system reliability by eliminating the weaknesses of rubber hoses
- Compatible with OEM Ram radiators to ensure precise fitment and sealing
- Replaces multiple MOPAR part numbers including 68166469AC, 68166469AA, 68166469AB, and others
- Resistant to swelling, cracking, and deterioration caused by heat and coolant exposure
- Easy to clean and maintain compared to rubber hoses
Construction & Design
This upper coolant pipe is expertly crafted from lightweight yet durable aluminum, chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity and resistance to corrosion. The aluminum construction helps dissipate heat more effectively than rubber, contributing to a more stable cooling system temperature. The pipe is precision-engineered to match the exact dimensions and mounting points of the OEM hose, ensuring a seamless fit without modifications.
The powder-coated Bengal Red finish not only enhances corrosion resistance but also adds a striking visual upgrade to the engine compartment. This coating is designed to withstand harsh under-hood conditions, including exposure to heat, moisture, and road debris.
Installation & Fitment
Installation is straightforward and designed to be a direct swap with the factory rubber upper coolant hose. No special tools or modifications are required when used with the OEM Ram radiator. It is important to note that aftermarket radiators with different inlet locations may cause fitment issues, so this part is recommended for use with factory radiators only.
Replacing the upper coolant pipe with this aluminum version can be completed with basic mechanical skills and standard hand tools. It is advisable to drain the coolant system before removal to prevent spills and to inspect all clamps and seals during installation for optimal performance.

What does the Available to Promise date mean?
ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
