ATS manifold/Heater hose bracket

[pgleavitt]

I thought I had all the info needed to complete this project but was mistaken. I didn't realize that the supplied heater hose relocation bracket only fit the 12 valve application and not the 24 valve. After bending the heck out of the hardline I figured out that no way this thing would fit. Can anyone give me a part number for the hardline I need to replace? I have since searched the links and see the proper bracket I will need to make. Thanks

go to the dealer or you might get lucky in the junkyard.



I used a piece of metal strip that went around the pipe with a bolt and nut then the length of it to go to the mounting bolt.

Eric, Thanks for the reply and photo. Still find it hard to believe that ATS doesn't give you the right bracket for the relocation. Will try to get new hardline from the dealer but so far it's a crap shoot every time they order a part as to what will actually show up.

The supplied bracket has worked for me on many 24 valves You just have to get a little creative.

That's my problem! I got way too creative. Put a small kink in it and it still rubs the manifold. Called a dealer and they want $56 plus shipping from Detriot. I also found a guy that bends hard lines for heavy equipment and he told me to bring it by. He has a Dodge Cummins and wants to check it out. Lucky me!
