Looks like I got a rad leak

    Just above the rear cross member. Nothing gushing, just a slow drip. Anyone know if I need OEM rad hose, or can I buy any rad hose the same diameter and cut it to length?

    if it is just a hose you can use any rad hose with the same inside diameter..if it is a preformed type you may have a tough time matching one up...other guys have had luck taking the old hose to a parts store and searching the racks for something close...you may also be able to splice it with a small section of copper plumbing pipe

    Some autoparts stores sell 1" heater hose by the foot.
