Silicone Coolant Hose Set......What about this one?

[ThorneGator]

After a search that didn't quite yield an answer, I thought I ask what you all think.......
I want to silicone-hose my coolant system (already upgraded the intercooler hoses) to avoid those hose bursting and stranding situations. I found this set: DIRENZA LAND ROVER DEFENDER 2.5 TD5 98-07 SILICONE ENGINE RADIATOR RAD HOSES HOSE KIT . (Vehicle: 2005 110 TD5)

It's a three piece set that looks to cover the main components, but after having a look under the bonnet I noticed that there seems to be a few little ancillary pieces.

-Does this kit cover all of the cooling system?
-Am I correct to assume that the coolant hose system is only as strong as the weakest link, and that if all the pieces aren't replaced, that there is little need to replace any of them?

Thank you,

Here's the cooling system.


And the overflow system.

And here's what you're looking at:

No coolant hoses

....Agreed,

If I can't replace all the coolant lines with silicone, then I figure that I would still have a 'weak link' in the system, and so better to keep consistency with the materials being used, right?

No coolant hoses

Surprising. Did you ring them? It says 'coming soon', but that might only be the picture.

Materials being different doesn't make any difference.. The silicone hoses should last longer - which means you'd be replacing less..
