Rage_kage Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Am I missing something here? My water pump hose is hitting my pipe, is my routing wrong or is it the cheap hoses I bought? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Happens with a lot of different set ups. You just have to be creative with turning them and possibly cut some. The one coming off the water pump. Try spinning it clockwise a quater turn. If not, trim an inch off the end and see if it puts the bend behind the hose.

hoppedupandcutdown Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Some pipe manufacturers recommend flipping it end for end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrx46 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 I'm having the same problem right now, was trying to figure it out earlier today. Like trick said above, try twisting it. Helped me a little bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rage_kage Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 ive put mine outside the frame tube and also have some zip ties holding "up" in between the front engine and pipes... mind you thats also because I wanted some extra clearance for my steering stabilizer and didnt want it rubbing out on the cotter pins from the steering stem tie rod mount thingy.Do you got a picture of how you ran yours?

Rage_kage Posted March 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 My hose use to hit my fmfs, just took header wrap and wrapped the coolant hose. Mine hit like 1" from the water pump.That's basically what's happening to mine. It either hits there or if I twist it the hose hits the flange section of the pipe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrx46 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 How much space should be left? It's not much on mine but it's not hitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
