Description
The Mishimoto MMHOSE-F50-11BL is a direct-fit blue silicone radiator hose kit engineered specifically for the 2011-2014 Ford F-150 5.0L V8. Unlike the factory rubber hoses that harden and crack with age, this kit pairs a five-layer silicone upper hose with a lower hose that swaps the leak-prone factory plastic connector for durable stainless steel, complete with a pre-installed quick-disconnect fitting for a straightforward install.
Cooling system failures rarely happen at a convenient time, and a cracked or swollen radiator hose is one of the most common causes of a coolant puddle in the driveway. Mishimoto built this hose kit with five layers of silicone reinforced with heat-resistant embedded fibers to improve heat and pressure tolerance over the factory hoses, giving your F-150’s cooling system a longer-lasting, more dependable upgrade. Because the lower hose’s stainless steel connector replaces the factory plastic piece, this kit addresses one of the most common failure points on these trucks while keeping the same quick-disconnect convenience Ford engineers designed in.
Vehicle Applications
This Mishimoto silicone radiator hose kit is a specific fit for the 2011-2014 Ford F-150 equipped with the 5.0L V8, covering the XL, XLT, STX, FX2, FX4, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, and SVT Raptor trims across all four model years. It also fits the 2011-2012 F-150 Harley-Davidson Edition, the 2011 Lariat Limited, the 2013-2014 Limited, and the 2014 Tremor. If your F-150 falls within these years and trims and runs the 5.0L V8, this hose kit is built to bolt in as a direct replacement.
