if you just need the insert end out of a plastic main coolant pipe........ or a couple feet of one end.........I can supply that. I have at least two plastic main coolant pipes, if you'd like to buy a whole good one . I think I got them like they are ........not marked as to which is which, but I do have some of that stuff for sure. I save 'everything' for vanagons .

I bought the GoWesty repair kit to install as preventative maintenance. Sure enough one end on 1 of my pipes was almost out, just like the picture on their website. The other end was much worst missing 1/2 the plastic rim on the end - probably from repair by past owner/shop during engine replacement.
I sent a picture of this bad pipe end to Taylor at GoWesty and he gave me the bad news that the rim is is essential and the coolant repair kit won't work for me. Has anyone got a 2wd plastic pipe to spare or maybe you upgraded to st stl and have an end that is popping out that you can send me for insertion into my pipe so I can use the repair kit?
If I had known this ahead of time, I guess I could have used the recent GoWesty free shipping offer on Memorial Day weekend on this big item instead of the repair kit. Grrrrr....
