LB7: Turbo coolant line hose

[Chevy1925]

So ive noticed that the bottom coolant hose on my trubo is swelling and leaking some. got a long trip comin up next week and dont need to blow a line and loose a bunch of coolant (specially since i just flushed it). anyone know what size that damn thing is(inner diameter wise)? id take it off for reference but id have not truck to drive to the parts store lol

I think it was 3/8" I bought some of the high pressure power steering hose and used it because of the heat factor-it lasts a little longer. Orilleys had the size in their computer so thats what I went with. Worked great so far.

Yes 3/8 stuff. Use a high temp hose, not the rubber fuel line type hose.
