Description
The Mishimoto MMHOSE-JLP-18ARD is a purpose-built silicone radiator hose kit engineered for the 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL and 2020+ Jeep Gladiator JT, both equipped with the 3.6L engine and automatic transmission. Finished in red, this kit swaps the factory’s stock plastic hose connectors for a one-piece silicone design with CNC-machined aluminum fittings, giving your Jeep’s cooling system a durable, performance-grade upgrade.
Every Mishimoto silicone hose in this kit is built from five layers of silicone reinforced with heat-resistant embedded fibers, delivering strong heat and pressure tolerance for demanding driving conditions. Whether you’re rock crawling or running trails in your Wrangler or Gladiator, this radiator inlet and outlet hose set is designed to keep coolant flowing reliably where the factory plastic connectors are prone to failure over time. The kit is classified as a Performance grade, specific-fit silicone hose set, and it’s backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
