This is a replacement for the lower/outlet heater hose assembly, though I modified it slightly by re-orienting some hose clamps. If you're looking at the heater hoses coming from your firewall, this is the lower one that also connects to the bottom of the coolant reservoir. I installed it as preventative maintenance on my 2015 Charger R/T 5.7 with 72,114 miles after the upper/inlet heater hose began leaking at the plastic T-fitting. (Replacement = Dorman 626-320.) Dorman claims its replacements are superior due to using aluminum fittings. This makes sense and I've had very positive experiences with their parts. When done, refill with OEM-compatible coolant. I found this a little trickier to replace than the top hose, so made the following notes based on the three hose connections (If you use a knife or razor to remove old hoses, be VERY careful so you don't nick up piping and cause leaks):Coolant reservoir: Unbolt (two 10mm bolts) to get at the lower hose. When reinstalling, it's easier to pull the hose assembly forward under the air conditioning pipe and make this connection first. (Ideally compare to the old hose and mark the top so you don't put a twist in the other hoses when reconnecting.)Firewall: It may be challenging getting a tool on the lower hose clamp as the upper hose and other items are so close. I recommend removing the upper hose first - for access - if you can somehow do so without damaging it. In my case, I was also replacing the upper so already had it off. Note that the replacement hose has three clamps at the T-fitting vs. the original. I highly recommend re-orienting the tabs of these clamps AWAY from the AC pipe that runs beneath. (This is much easier to do before installation.) Otherwise they can touch due to vibration & engine movement, possibly wearing through the softer metal of the AC pipe.Engine: Removing the plastic engine cover created ample access.Final note: Don't forget to bleed air from the system (search the web for videos)! Otherwise you might end up like me, overheating 10 miles down the road due to an air pocket.
