Stock radiator in my NA has finally cracked, what else to replace while i pull it?

Stock NA with A/C that is going to stay stock.  I am likely going with the Stock Auto NA radiator from FM and likely the 16 psi cap.  Should i get the FM lower radiator hose as well?

I'd think pretty much any cooling hose would be a "while you were in there" replacement when you do a radiator.  You've got to drain, refill, and "burp" the system anyway.  If the radiator's gone, in all likelihood the hoses aren't far behind. 

I like the lower FM radiator hose, so I'd put that on. Also, the two hoses to the heater are notorious for going bad so I'd change those two as well. And at that point you might as well change out the top radiator hose .

Pssst!

In reply to Keith Tanner :

its on back order though

So currently in the cart is the FM NA8 Hose and belt kit and the Stock auto radiator.  I also need to do the CAS O ring so I guess ill order one of those as well

This is my wife’s thought process.......our 18 year old kitchen needs a stove so we might as well gut the kitchen and get new Amish shaker cabinets that I’ve always wanted.  You know those builder standard cabinets are E36 M3.   Might as well move the stove and get new lighting too.
