[urq] IC to turbo substitute hose installed

[Ingo Rautenberg]

Ed,

Glad it worked out for you.  That application post
"Light Truck
Dodge-Ram 2500 & 3500 Pickup
2001-1994 6Cyl 5.9L(359) Cummins Turbo Eng"

should help others where the store doesn't have a Goodyear No. cross
reference. I'll be replacing mine again soon after all I put it through at
Steamboat ;-)

-Ingo

> This hose seems to work quite well.  It is not a straight piece and the
bend in it seems quite well suited to the geometry of the ic to turbo
relationship.

> I cut off a little over 4 inches of the end that fits the turbo.  Probably
could have cut off just a little less.  That would have allowed me to trim
the other end so it would fit on the intercooler a bit farther.  But all in
all, it seems to fit quite well.

> Both ends were a good snug fit, with the intercooler end being a fair
struggle.  My back is almost raw from laying under the car while engaged in
this hand-to-hose combat... ah ah ah, keep those minds out of the gutter
now.  ;-)
>
> Also, this hose does not rest against the back of the intercooler like my
old hose did.  Should allow a bit better flow I'd imagine.
