Factory Radiator Hose Clamps?

I'm going to be changing out my radiator, thermostat and hoses. I already have all of these (OEM Toyota), but I just realized that I forgot to order new OEM clamps. I've looked through several online catalogs but I don't seem to be able to find the part number for the hose clamps. Does anyone have the part numbers for all four of the ones that I will need? Thanks.

Just replaced my upper and lower hoses during a radiator R&R and use those Toyota clips.

They come in the open position help with a small red clip. All you have to do is slide them on the hose where you want them and pull off the retaining clip with a needle nose

also don't use your fingers to hold the clamp when you pull the retaining clip. unless you want a blood blister.
 
With OEM hoses, you can still use the old clamps. I never replaced those clamps on all 4 of my toyota's (with OEM hoses) and never had an issue.

Same here.
Have them on my 86 long bed, 95 T100 and 02 Runner.......all original as have never found the need to replace them and no failures.

Replacing them on general principles as they are cheap and then I'll have spares. Also, had bad luck with trying to recycle factory clamps in past, not just with Toyotas. They tend to go missing or otherwise become unusuable sometime between when I take them off and when I put them back on (don't ask).
 
I replaced the clamps 2 years ago with a new set of OEM clamps when I changed out the upper and lower hoses. They were cheap, so why not. Plus, they look better than the old marred up clamps.

Not sure if there's any truth to this, but I've heard from a tech that the adjustable jubilee clamps create uneven pressure on hoses which can possibly promote a fluid leak.

When I type in the part number noted above from Carlos V, 90467-37005, it says it won't fit 97 4runner. How different could these clamps be from year to year? Also, on the diagram they sent me from Camelback a while ago it lists a different part number for the clamps on upper hose versus lower hose. That also makes no sense to me. I had found a part number earlier of 90080-46352 which the CB website also says won't fit my 97 4runner. Maybe any of them would work, who knows?
 
So I just talked to Olathe Toyota parts guy and he quoted me P/N 90467-37005 which is the same as Yotashop, so maybe thats the "most correct" radiator hose clamps. Probably way overthinking this...

I replied to your other post that the 90467-37005 is the correct PN. I have them on my '97.
 
Thank you! I fail to understand why Camelback, using my VIN number, says those "won't fit".

What is even worse is they just cancelled my whole $350 order for hoses and clamps "because we won't ship to an address different from billing address". WTF! We have a little mobile home in the desert for offroading and hiking and yes, it is different from our billing address. They can't figure out their own internet security?? Bizarre. I understand internet fraud is a problem, but this is crazy. Oh well, I guess will try Olathe or Yotashop now.

***I complained too soon! My bad. Adam and Crystal at Camelback figured out a workaround and got me squared away. Exceptional customer service. I know they are just trying to cut down on fraud where someone steals a card, orders parts to a different address, and there you go. I know it happens and it seems to happen more now that in places like the Northwest, crime is no longer illegal.

Anyway, Camelback provided amazing customer service on this.

If you have time to wait on shipping you can save a lot by using amayama or partsouq
 
I will have to admit that in the "olden days" I was not a fan of the constant pressure clamps and would always switch them out for screw clamps. Guess its cause that is what I was used to using.
many many years ago on a 4runner I replaced my radiator and replaced all clamps with screw clamps. one night in the middle of bum frick no place the screw clamp on the bottom hose came undone and the rig blew the hose off. leaving me stranded as I was not hauling any water with me.
Now many years later...i use the pressure clamps where I can and replace old if needed with them. But there are places and times where the screw clamps is all you can get or do work the best. ( example for my magnifine tranny filter, it has screw clamps) In my tool box in the rig, I do keep screw clamps cause they can fit so many sizes of hose for roadside repairs etc.
 
If you have the opportunity to measure and order clamps, I've found Belmetric a great resource to procure all sorts of hardware, including constant tension clamps. They have catered to VW enthusiasts for years (my other mechanical passion) and offer great pricing and service.

I am afraid we may be on the way to a retirement home.

Just today I tried looking up radiator and hoses/clamps for my 97, and found several sites listed the radiator as "no longer available" even though the same part number (16410-AZ011) showed as available on other sites.

On the hose clamps, I suspect the issue is that older years are getting left out of the databases.

I found that 90467-37005 ($7.21 at Olathe) is shown as replacement for 37001, 37002, 37004 and 37006, while 37003 ($8.87 at Olathe) is also a replacement for 37001. The 37005 part shows years 2000-2014 and the warning "This part does not fit your 1997 4Runner", while the 37003 part does not list any applicable years and does not show a warning. Obviously it is a data issue not a fit issue since both 37005 and 37003 'replace' 37001.

On the radiator, this might just be a supply chain problem, or a new part number may be in the works, or it could be we will be stuck with after-market soon :(

As long as your clamps aren't super rusty they are reusable. If they are seeping your radiator hosed need replaced. Radiator hoses only last so long anyways. If original I replace every 100k. I know mine were done by 250k
