Bronco Graveyard Rad Hoses

[TTownEP]

Has anyone used these radiator hoses, meant for the Mustang motor swap, on the Explorer motor swap with factory Bronco radiator?

It looks like a similar water neck orientation, but does it jive with the Explorer brackets?

There seems to be a ton of people making Frankenstein hoses from a list of different hoses for other vehicles, but never see this mentioned.

I used this kit with a Champion Radiator with the top port on the high side of the passenger side and the lower on the drivers side. I can dig up the part number if neccessary..

I used those Mustang hoses when I had a Ron Davis radiator(s) years ago with the swapped inlet/outlet for the 5.0 swap. Worked great with the Explorer bracketry. I don't recall if the hose ends on the Bronco radiators are the same diameter as those hoses or not.

I still have a Mustang top hose sitting in my garage that you can have for the cost of shipping if you're interested....

I did finally get in touch with someone there, and they could not confirm fitment for the Explorer front dress.

I do now see that I am barking up the wrong tree. This goes from the water neck to the passenger side of the radiator, and I need one to go to the driver's side.

I may change course here, and do the Frankenstein route like everyone else. None of my local parts houses have the usual hoses in stock, so I figured if I had to order it in anyway, may as well check every option.

Yes sorry. I think I thought you were running this to the passenger side. I do think I have seen a few buddies that have ran theirs to the drivers side. Let me see if I can get a picture and part numbers to post for you.

I know people have done it.
