When I bought the Jeep, the heater housing was laying in the back seat and the heater hookups on the engine were bypassed into each other. Evidently the previous owner didn't need heat in Cali. Anywho, here is what I have for hookups: Top heater core Bottom heater core Water pump Thermostat housing front intake manifold rear intake manifold Obviously, two of the connectors on the engine go to each other. What sizes of hoses do I use for each routing?

Didn't know there was actually a premade hose for the thermostat to front manifold. I'm just running a chunk of heater hose right now.

Stuff ain't that expencive, get some hose clamps and a couple feet of each size you "think" you'll need and go back to the parts house for what you find that you really need, keep the spare stuff, you'll find a use for it later. 91 Jeep Wrangler YJ, carpet, tires, trailer hitch. yea....
