Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) intercooler boots??

[strehl]

Are any better than the other? I ordered a set from PDR and they're on backorder. Geno's has a set thats a little cheaper and have them in stock. I can't wait too much longer since i need the truck to haul stuff up north soon. Are the PDR better should i wait??

Give Rip a call at: Source Automotive. He's got some of the best that I've seen.

cool site, but they don't mention how much pressure any of the hoses will take. Looks like they have most of the hoses a person would need for their truck but wouldn't know till you mesured. Anyone prevoiusly measured any of the boots?

Call , Bryan at Diesel Power Products (DPP), He has a very nice set available in three different colors, black, blue, red.



I purchased mine from him w/cbh under 2 bills, no shipping charge.

Genos sells the BD hoses... . they are sweet! I installed mine in 45min. because the fit was perfect..... I'd go with BD. If your boots aren't torn... . just take them off & spray hairspray on the mounting surfaces & double nut all of your clamps to get you by until you recieve the new boots. I did this to my stockers & they held 55psi great.

I have the BD set as well. I'm not really modded at all yet, but had to replace mine because the 2 hoses at the cooler were rubbing thru against the inner fenders. I was gonna go with stockers, but it woulda cost me more to get just the 2 hoses I needed from the dealer than it cost me to get the whole BD hose and clamp kit. I think the hoses are of good quality, but i'm not to impressed with the clamps. They just look cheesy compared to the clamps I see on some of the big rigs that come thru our shop.

the ones from "intake hoses .com" wont hold! they are only 2 layer and not temp or oil resistant.

Burst pressures depend on the size of silicone turbo hose/sleeve or elbow. burst pressure for 3 inch id: 3 ply 75 psig 4 ply 90 psig 6 ply 150 psi

I cleaned mine up with degreaser and hairsprayed them together.

It's holding 40psi now. I blew them at 25 previously.

Intercooler Boots

As someone mentioned we have complete sets available for 2nd and 3rd Gen's. None have blown off to date that I have been aware of. We are going to try them with twins shortly on a truck running around 80psi and see how they hold up.
