  where I can locate the lower 90 degree rad hoses? mine have a very tight bend that are almost restricted where they turn to go toward the rad. the id is 1.5 inches to the block and the other end to rad is 1.75 inches id.

  I could not find direct replacement upper and lower rad hoses for my 1938 60hp. However I did find that a Gates 21202 worked well for the upper hose, and a Gates 20626 worked well for the lower. The Gates lower hose looks like you could get both lower hoses out of it, but they would not have been long enough on my car so I bought two. Best of luck!

  nope, that one is still too big, it has to have a very tight bend.

  If it helps, what I did was cut the hose as close as I could to the bend and still get the clamp to work. Again this was on a 1938, not sure if it is the same as a 1937. Good Luck
