Description
The Mishimoto MMHOSE-F2D-01RRBK is a silicone coolant hose reroute kit purpose-built for the 2001-2003 Ford 7.3L Powerstroke, engineered to solve one very specific headache: Ford originally snaked the factory upper radiator hose through the serpentine belt, so replacing the belt meant draining and refilling the entire cooling system. This kit reroutes that upper coolant hose behind the belt, so belt service no longer requires touching your coolant.
Beyond the reroute design, this Mishimoto Cooling kit gives your 7.3L Powerstroke a complete hose refresh. Each hose is built from four layers of silicone with embedded heat-resistant fibers, delivering the durability and performance Mishimoto’s Powerstroke performance parts are known for. Whether you’re doing routine maintenance or replacing aging factory rubber, this coolant hose reroute kit combines a smarter hose path with performance-grade silicone construction to keep your cooling system reliable for the long haul.
Vehicle Applications
This kit is a specific fit for the 2001-2003 Ford Excursion V8 7.3L, along with the 2001-2003 Ford F-250 Super Duty, F-350 Super Duty, F-450 Super Duty, and F-550 Super Duty, all equipped with the V8 7.3L engine. Because Ford changed the water pump connection partway through production, trucks built before approximately 4/26/2001 use an earlier straight-fitting connection and require the 1999-2001 kit instead, while trucks built on or after approximately 4/26/2001 use the curved water pump connection this kit is designed for. Model year alone doesn’t tell you which kit fits, so check your truck’s build date on the door jamb sticker before ordering.
