Can't find radiator hoses

govsux · Jul 22, 2023

Does anybody know where I can find an upper and lower radiator hose for a 1959 TD340 International harvester crawler?? Usually a littler persistence on the internet will finally pop up but I'll be darn I can't find it. I also need a thermostat gasket but I could make one if I had to. As handy as I am though I can't whip up a radiator hose!! PS I had to do a lot of metal working and customizing the front idlers but I got it fixed will post pics of the project. Took me 3 months off and on to get all done ready to roll and the upper hose pops.... sob!

Do what I do take them hoses in your hand and go
shopping at places like napa or where ever. Match up the
closest one then cut and fit it. More than one way to
skin a pig . Plus there is also universal hoses that u bend
into shape ur not stuck yet. Just need a little ingenuity.

Hadn't thought of that I guess if all else fails ...
