[QUOTE="Paul Fithian, post: 1035784, member: 73332"] New hose was installed on that nipple, it did not leak. The leak is at the nipple base. The video I posted earlier in the thread explains why it leaked. Steel nipple into a straight threaded connection with a silicone bead. I have ~ 100 miles on truck after installing the Simmons housing, no leak or coolant smell. [/QUOTE]
