anyone know what hoses needed
Yahoo Message Number: 111536
FYI...it's a '98 E-450 Triton V-10 in an IB....

Went to my Napa shop yesterday armed with my E-450 books from the LD....2nd try to get spare hoses and belts before heading out to parts unknown.
 First problem was their book only showed diesel E-450s--eventually he thou0ght he'd found the correct parts for it...2nd was there were two separate heater hose configurations...one main w/three outlets or offshoots...parts guy said it was for rear cabin heat distribution--told him nope...didn't have that on the class C coach...just needed the front cab hoses.
 He *thought* he found the correct hose, but since the darned thing is $97... I want to be SURE. Does anyone on the list have the actual parts numbers for the radiator and heater hoses used on our rigs? I also ordered the single serpentine belt he says it uses. Not a mechanic so I can't tell by looking--that's one packed engine compartment!

Thanks for any help people.

--- Just a suggestion, but you might want to check with the parts department of a Ford truck dealer; they should be able to look up the parts numbers and provide the correct belts and hoses.

Gini,
 As part of my preventitive maintenance, I had Ford replace hoses and belts on my 2000 MB (E-450, V10) last year.  While I can't be sure they are identical to your '98, the Ford part numbers they replaced are:

KM-4586 HOSE    $31.31 KM-4503 HOSE AS $99.73 KH-294 HOSE     $43.73 KH-503 HOSE     $49.64

I also had them replace the V-Belt:

JK8-996-AA      $69.04
 NAPA should have a cross reference to those Ford part numbers, but don't forget, mine is a 2000, so there could be differences.

Hope this helps,
