FAQ
Is this FLEECE FPE-34258-A hose a direct fit for my truck’s stock coolant lines?
No — this hose is built as a universal fit item for custom or aftermarket cooling system installations. It is not a vehicle-specific stock replacement. You’ll need to verify your exact routing, clearance, and branch connections to ensure proper fit.
Can I use this hose for an auxiliary coolant loop or turbo cooler bypass line?
Yes. The integrated 1″ ID T-fitting branch is designed exactly for that kind of use. You can tap into a main 5/8″ coolant line and branch off to a turbo cooler, heater, or another auxiliary component without adding extra adapters or fittings.
What type of hose clamps should I use with this Fleece hose?
Use high-quality coolant-rated clamps that are compatible with EPDM rubber hose material. Avoid low-quality generic clamps; for best reliability use OEM-style or performance-grade clamp with constant-tension design.
Does this hose come with a core charge or require a return old hose?
No. This is a new accessory hose product and does not require any core return or old hose deposit.
How do I route this hose for best flow and longevity?
Ensure the 90° ends are free from kinking or contact with hot components. The T-branch should be oriented properly to avoid air pockets in the branch line. After installation, bleed the coolant system and inspect for leaks during warming and under load.
