Before You Buy An Accordian Hose!!!

[Nomad707]

Im NOT TRYING TO ADVERTISE!!!

just trying to save some of you some money!!!!

do not buy accordian hoses on ebay! they are used on ebay and hard.. and usually crack easy.. you can buy a NEW OEM accordian hose off of horsepowerfreaks.com for CHEAP.
I see people paying 30-40 on ebay for a used crapper..

just throwing that out there!

I just bought mine and it arrived today.. perfect!

[Nomad707]

sorry i dont have a P/N

 

[Nomad707]

$50? wow i got mine new for like $30

i think its 40$ off of toyotapartscheap.com i jsut dotn want to look it up im sure the dealer price is prolly 30$ i know the dealer close to me wouldnt dream of selling it that low though.. lol

 

[Nomad707]

dealers here charge an arm and a leg... this was definately cheaper.

it was 42$ on hpf but i guess they rose the price.

 

[tlo86]

they go up and down all the time, the point is, stay away from ebay! lol

there are two different part numbers for the same hose. Jeff Lange told me that.

here's the kicker- one part number costs MORE than the other when you purchase them. werid, huh?

hopefully jeff lange will chime in, as he has the P/N's memorized, and told me the cheaper one to buy.

wow that is interesting!

yep i believe the 89+ accordian hose has a different part number and is alot cheaper than the pre 89 accordian hose. Dont quote me but i "think" thats right. But yep as Joe said i bought mine from the dealer.

$32 at wenatchee town toyota, next day shipping included.

Prices from Champion website:

17882-42H00 $89.07 (for 08/1986 - 08/1987)
17882-42012 $37.95 (for 09/1987 - 05/1993)

As far as I can tell the cheaper one works for all years.

There are other examples like this. For example, the rear shock dust covers are half price for the 91-92 model year, even though completely interchangeable with earlier years.

$50? wow i got mine new for around $30

ditto, called up jeff at champion and had no issues at a $32 shipped price

I will throw something out there too! You can buy new ones on e-bay also. So before you go and tell everyone not to buy on e-bay, do a little research.
