Can somebody tell me where the extra 4 hoses go between the 6 and 10 hose kit?
I believe I marked the 6 hoses with blue tape. Am I right? Where are the other 4 hoses?
Silicone hoses??

Ill try and help you with some pics since i just installed my hose kit from DDM, hope it helps you
.....lower hose you can not see coming off the radiator

I'll try and let the pro's correct me but I see two - Lower radiator hose and intake breather line. I think one other might be the coolant overflow maybe, but not sure. Pic from DDM site of the 10 hoses in their kit by name if this helps. Pic of mine from above, but setup differently with turbo getting coolant, but may help?

On a related note, while doing a search for coolant hoses last night, I came across a vendor selling a set specific for the 2015-2016.5 for around $75. Since it was a known name I failed to bookmark it, but for the life of me I cannot find it again this morning, help?

Unless you delete it at the end of each day in order to stay married and out of jail.
Were they silicone like the DDM upgrade?

I have some memes about hoses but they’re inappropriate for this thread...

Doesn't help. The only thing I recall is that they were specifically for the 2015-2016.5, relatively reasonably priced, and from a vendor that I was familiar with, well, I thought I was familiar with?

The page linked says 'as low as $75.00' but if you select any color available including black it goes to $149.99. Not a big fan of that kind of marketing...

I gotta agree, SlingLow.
That was not the page I was looking at, but I seem to recall now that the vendor was Twist! Going straight to the Twist site, at $150 it still may be the most inexpensive way to purchase coolant hoses for the SlingShot, even stock hoses would cost more.
Thanks BKL, I believe you answered my question!

I agree, I don't like that either. I assume it may be a mistake because when I first looked at that product at a year or so ago, I think it was priced at $75.00, but I can't say for sure. Twist Dynamics has the kit listed at $149 on their site.

It was suggested to me in a private conversation to contact Sling Shot Only about this discrepancy, you can now go to the website to see their solution.

$89.99 is more affordable than the previous price listed, but it still seems odd that the 2015-2016.5 9-hose kit at $89.99 is priced less than the 2016.5+ 6-hose kit at $125.00. Maybe the new marked-down $89.99 price reflects a clearance since several colors are no longer shown/available?
To add some moer confusion, SSO lists the now $89.99 kit as 9-piece while the Twist Dynamics site lists it at $149.99 but as a 10-piece kit and also shows it fits 2015-2019 Slingshots!

They both list the same nine hoses? Is Twist Dynamics including the clamps with their description?
I am thinking that SlingShot Only's discounted price is due to discontinuing a product? At any rate, if one can live with any of the colors offered it sure beats any other's price, does it not? I think that I will order a set to stash away just to have on hand when a hose may be needed in the future!

I have had a DDM Works Aluminum Coolant tank for about 1.5 years and need to get installed, so I may order a kit, too. Just can't decide on which color.
Both TD and SSO list the same product, just different colors available. The only difference between the listings is TD lists the Intake Breather Line and it's not listed on SSO. Might be typo...?

That pink looks pretty sexy...

My point of view is that coolant hoses are hidden under the hood, so as long as they are comparatively inexpensive, functional, and do their job, I do not really care what color they are.

Alright, $90 SlingShot Only vs $150 Twist Dynamics vs $275 DDM? I ordered the blue SlingShot Only set and will stash them for future needs!
