These are economy replacement hoses by Scott Drake. Aftermarket type hoses without original Ford markings in most cases. Made in the U.S.A.
This hose is the hose most Mustang / Cougar parts vendors offer. It is a rubber flex hose with economy fittings. Use caution when tightening these down as they are susceptible to stripping if you torque them to the specs called for by FORD. We do not recommend these hoses and can not stand behind them as they often will leak if not torqued to the proper specs.
Replaces Ford Part #: C7OZ-3A319-D & C7OZ-3A317-A.
