All oem 2nd generation cooler hoses are universal among models. In other words, YES!

Are you bidding on the hoses on Ebay? Ironic, I was about to ask the same question.

You guys know there is a whole 'for sale' section on the forum.

You can probably get oil cooler lines for real cheap there.

CorkSport has awesome ones. I just got them and am really happy with them. CorkSport has really good customer service too.

+1 for Corksport SS lines if you have the cash. If not, a good used pair on the forums should be $25-$35 shipped.

any hydraulics shop (like machine hydraulics) will be able to make you a new set for outrageously cheep prices. probably 30 bucks a hose at most and will take 30 minutes for them to do so.

you know how labor goes though.. theyll charge a grip.. especially when i can do it myself. I'll check it out though. The material thats used for the lines are special though.. I'd rather just get someones stock ones if they upgraded. Hopefully someone has a set.

I could make some at work if you want to reuse the fittings. Any High Pressure oil, fuel air hose will work, that is for a industrial application. We make hoses at the trucking company I work for.
SS is so Sexxy!

its a hydraulic shop. they have any kind of line imaginable. they even have the same hose in stock, and probably will withstand 4k psi. also, its all done and crimped by large machines. the put the fittings on with the rubber hose, push a button, whamo. new hose.

go there and get one hose. then be surprised at how easy and cheap and fast they are.

just a note, when my oil lines were leaking, no hydraulic shop would make me new hoses for some reason.

I ended up carefully grinding off the old clamps, getting some bad a** hose from NAPA, and clamps....

No leaks to speak of, and "complete" hose cost me about ten bucks, for the line clamps and the grinding wheel...
