The big truck dealerships are a good source for heavy duty charge-air supplies. I have purchased heavy duty spring loaded t-bolt clamps from them. They are expensive through the dealers. A 4. 25 inch clamp cost me $16. 00. I needed it and my distributor didn't have it. (I would have paid about...

I should be able to get you one of these hoses if you still need it. I do research and development on charge air systems and therefore have access to some O. E. M. suppliers. The price is probably in the $40. 00 range. If you still want one, I will get the actual cost for you. Let me know. I...

Chuck, I sent you a spring loaded t-bolt clamp. The installation torque on this type is between 50-60 inch-lbs. The factory clamps install around 70. This is due the locking collar on the factory clamps. It requires 10 inch lbs. to turn before a load is applied. The heavy duty spring...

Clamp Fix The nuts on your clamps are not coming loose. What is happening is a combination of relaxation of the silicone hoses and slight deformation of the clamp itself. This is very common in charge air systems, especially when you start to increase boost pressure. The fix to this problem is...

24v-dsl As far as I know, the size and number of clamps has been the same since 94. The samll spring may have been added on some(see my previous post). Torque on these is 65-70lbs. in I'll see what I can find out on the silicone hoses. The 45 degree hoses on the intercooler may be...

Chuck I'll send the clamp to you this weekend. Let me know when you get it. The spring and hardware shown on the clamp in the pictures from my previous post CANNOT be used on the standard factory installed clamps. Here's why. This spring is designed to maintain a high tension through...

Chuck There are two different clamp sizes on the IC system. There are six smaller clamps and 2 large ones. The large one attaches the hose shown to the cooler unit on both the cooler inlet and outlet. The smaller ones are used on the rest of the system.

Chuck The clamps you purchased from NAPA are the worm drive type. These may work fine for you, especially if you are running under 20 PSI of boost. The installation torque on these is between 75-100 lbs. in. However, I have seen the band on these stretch and/or break under high boost and...

If the clamps you bought from NAPA are constant torque T-Bolt type clamps, your problem is solved. However, if they are worm drive type, you may still have a problem. I have worked with heavy truck and argiculture/construction equipment manufactures for several years on issues regarding IC...
