Bottom Radiator Hose

[lonzcllns]

I would like to replace the bottom radiator hose on my '85 Mk IV.  It appears to have different ID's from one end to the other.  Any ideas where I can get a replacement hose?

Sorry for the late answer Lonnie, i replaced all my hoses by silicon hoses bought from a race shop. They have universal hose forms as straights, elbows in different angles, both ends with the same or different diameters and you can put them together the way you need it. For "s" shaped hoses you need to use aluminum connecting tubes from the same source.

Sadly we have no idea what Autokraft used for hoses. A trip to the local NAPA and perusing the hode book should provide some suspects.
