Description
If you’ve noticed your coolant level dropping or spotted green puddles under your MF 550, that old bottom radiator hose might be the culprit. This hose carries coolant from your radiator back to the engine block, and when it starts cracking or swelling from years of heat cycles, it’ll leak coolant right when you need your tractor most. A fresh hose keeps your cooling system sealed tight and your Perkins AD3.152 running at the right temperature.
What You’re Getting
- Pre-formed shape fits exactly like the original with no kinks or tight bends
- Heavy-duty rubber construction handles heat cycling between cold starts and full-load operation
- Reinforced walls resist collapse under vacuum when the engine cools down
- Direct replacement – no modifications or adapters needed
- Quality materials that resist coolant degradation and temperature extremes
Built for Real Farm Work
This hose is designed specifically for Massey Ferguson 550 tractors equipped with the reliable Perkins AD3.152 three-cylinder diesel engine. Whether you’re running your 550 with a loader, pulling implements, or doing general farm work, this engine depends on proper coolant circulation to stay cool under load. The 550 was built as a versatile utility tractor that could handle everything from hay work to cultivation.
Made to Last
Farm tractors see temperature swings from freezing mornings to blazing summer afternoons, and this hose is built to handle it all. The rubber compound stays flexible in cold weather but won’t get soft and spongy when things heat up. Quality construction means you won’t be crawling under the tractor to replace it again next season.
Good to Know
Let the engine cool completely before replacing – hot coolant and steam can cause serious burns. Have fresh coolant ready because you’ll lose some during the swap. The bottom hose is easier to reach than the top, but you might need to remove a shield or move some components for better access. Clean the hose clamps and connection points while you’re at it.
