Coolant Hoses

1
Can anyone tell me where to buy the 2 long coolant hoses that go from the connector next to the motor to the radiator. Is it cheaper and would I be better off in the long run to buy the complete set. My mechanic believes only the 2 main hoses need replacing and he has double clamped them at the last coolant change?
Thanks Dave

Do you mean the two long plastic pipes?

I thought that the pipes were available in plastic and metal? I do mean the 2 long pipes.

Just Kampers have Stainless Steel replacements. Just make sure that you get the correct ones.

Last week I ordered from just kampers J15347 which are the syncro ones. They said they would be about 4 weeks as they don't seem to keep them in stock.

Looks like the right hoses and costing $420 for the feed and return hoses I think it is money well spent when you think about them leaking or bursting out the back of whoop whoop and having to source them in an emergency situation.
Thanks Bruce.
