60Patrol

Hello everyone, I hope you all had a fantastic holiday season.  A funny thing happened to me last week when I flushed and re-filled my radiator  erghhhhh !  I am now in need of a lower radiator hose and all the Nissan parts people say it is available but its gonna take some time to get it. My question  for all you Patrol owners is- has anyone put a non stock radiator hose on their P40 engine ? and if so can you pass on information on  part# , compatible make  etc...  Just to be clear,  the hose I need is the one connected from the water pump to the lower radiator.     Thanks    Jesse                                                              jza57@mindspring.com  

I must've got lucky, cause I just ordered the same hose last week and am picking it up at the Nissan dealer today. He did say there were backorders when he ordered mine, but that there was one in stock. I thought it was kind of strange, but he must have got it from a different regional parts warehouse. I order my stuff mostly from Beaverton, OR Nissan. Talk to Bruce in parts 503/643-8676, maybe he can get you one too.
