Rep Power: 0 Lower Radiator Hose Help
What's up fellas as you can see I'm a muscle head in need of help. Long story short my bro is in Iraq and my mom was driving his 06 lx 1.8 on a road trip and hit something in the road destroying the radiator and ac condenser. Ordered a new rad and condenser but I lost one part in the tear down which i don't know how because there where only a few things I had to take apart. Where the lower radiator hose connects there is a plastic piece that is built into the radiator and the lower hose connects to. I lost the silver metal half circle
It looked like a pressure clamp of some sort. Anyone know where I could find this piece or would a new radiator come with one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to email if I don't get back to you I have a busy work weekend lol. Thanks. Mrcamaromanz28@gmail.com

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Got pics?
Any dealership can get parts for you.
I guess you lost clip #12? That's important, it's the retainer for the quick coupler.

Go to the hardware store and find a hose clamp. They sell them in medal or plastic. You could even do a turkey tie but either way they all work the same to connect the hose to the radiator. They are all under a dollar. It's cheaper and easier if you do it yourself. Good luck btw....google and youtube work wonders if your stomped on something
