99 40fds coolant line

Hey y'all just noticed the steel lower rad line is in really bad shape pitted badly curious about availability and cost if anyone's done it. Thanks

….pretty sure you are talking about a fabrication project after all this time....there was a short list of parts providers on the ACA tech library but not sure the maker of that pipe was listed...

If you’re talking about the rigid pipe, mine is out being sand blasted and powder coated. It had to come out to replace the radiator, so it made sense. The shop here is charging $150 to sandblast and put black high-temp powder coating on.

Hope that helps.

Any idea on the wall thickness, mine looks like if I tried I could put a pick thru it fairly easily. It's pretty pitted. Any pics of it when you pulled it? Thanks

I didn’t get to see it off the coach, but mine had quite a bit of rust and oxidation. I haven’t received anything from the shop of them being worried about it.
