Where can I get a 90* heater hose fitting? It's the one for the intake manifold and its gor 1/2" NPT threads. Straight ones are everywhere. I guess because that's what a chevy uses.:mad:

I think Home Depot should have one of those in their brass fitting section

That's why I couldn't find it.?:? I was looking in the automotive dept and should have looked in the plumbing dept!;D
A Bronco owner needs to be resourceful.

My local "mom-n-pop" auto parts shop had a nice stainless fitting that was perfect for this application. Wasn't expensive either.

You can also use a brass street Ell and screw the straight nipple into it.........
The ones in the plumbing dept will have barbs in stead of a smooth area for the hose clamp

Oops there is that nipple word again :)
