Hi Guys,
Rather than using the regular black rubber hose,I want to use a clear hose.But my ? is can I just Run to home Depot and get the 1'' clear hose that is chemical safe in the plumbing department or will the coolant run way to hot for that.Any help would be great..Thanks

Hey, from expierence, normal even heavier/thicker wall(even higher PSI rating) clear plumbing/heater hose didnt hold up. After the quad would warm up it became VERY soft and at one point even split. This is all from just trying it, i never even made it out with those hoses to ride. Im running clear hoses on a couple of my prodjects, i think the company that makes them is called woco or something like that. I know they run anywheres from 100-200 just for the two hoses, but hey, it looks real cool  Justin |

I use that home Depot hose. Thats were i got my oil lines and radiator coolant lines. Im thinking of switching my oil lines to clear cause iseen some clear lines at home depot. I cant find any hose for the radiator though. Its all to stiff and none will seal good enough Cause i been trying differant hoses from their and when i start the quad the lines leak. The only hose that dont leak is the one that came with the motor when i baught the motor. Its really soft and seals really good and i over heat alot and the hose never failed. Heres some hose i ran that was from the home depot. It was red and looked good but didnt seal good enough.  |
