Description
When your temperature gauge starts creeping higher than usual or you’re topping off the coolant more often than you’d like, the problem is usually hiding right in plain sight. This lower radiator hose is one of those parts that quietly does its job for years until it decides it’s had enough. When it goes soft, develops cracks, or starts weeping coolant, you’ll know it’s time for a replacement.
What You’re Getting
- Custom molded design that follows the exact routing path from radiator to water pump
- Heavy-duty construction that handles the constant pressure cycling and temperature swings
- Quality rubber compound that resists coolant chemicals and won’t get soft or spongy
- Direct fit for both 298 and 698 models with no modifications needed
Built for Real Farm Work
This hose connects the bottom of your radiator to the water pump inlet on Massey Ferguson 298 and 698 tractors. These machines are known for their reliability in medium-duty farming operations like cultivating, mowing, and loader work. Whether you’re running a brush hog through fence rows or moving round bales with a spear, your cooling system has to keep that engine at the right temperature.
Made to Last
The constant expansion and contraction from heating and cooling cycles eventually takes its toll on any coolant hose. This replacement is built with the same quality materials as the original, designed to handle years of temperature swings from cold morning startups to full operating heat under load.
Installation Notes
Drain your cooling system before removing the old hose to avoid making a mess. A hose that’s been on for years might need some coaxing to come off – a little heat from a hair dryer or heat gun softens stubborn rubber. While you’ve got the system drained, it’s a perfect time to flush it and check your other hoses too.
