On my way to going camping Friday I blew my radiator hose. Its a small hole but it looked like Old Faithful when I got the hood up. Radiator fluid everywhere. Me and my buddies managed to tape it up and got me home but now it seems that nobody has an upper radiator hose for a 1999 Jeep Cherokee 2.5L with A/C. Now I knew it was rare but damn. If anybody knows where I could get one that would be great. Trying not to go to the dealership, I'd rather not have to sell everything I own just to get a radiator hose.
I borrowed this photo from another forum, but mine is the same hose and I cant find a new one anywhere.

They are rare, and people look at me funny, but that is the right hose as it routed behind the a/c compressor. There should be a clamp that holds the back loop of the hose as well if it's not already broken.
I end up buying most of my 2.5l specific parts online only, since no one wants to order them or even available to order at the store. *Cough* air temperature sensor *cough*.

Which is the right hose? The fist one (Dayco 71278) doesn't fit, because it is made for the 2.5L Wrangler. The upper radiator hose attaches at a different point on the wranglers.

Are you sure your looking at the right part. Everywhere I am looking says the 71278 is for the Comanche and Cherokee 2.5L
