it is marine grade hose, i think 1.5 or 2.0, you'll have to measure it or measure the area where it attaches. your gonna have to pull the coupling and what the heck it would also be a good time to check your alignment and inspect the rest of the driveline

Its 2 inch. I have the shaft out to do the strut bushing and I need to pull the motor to do the rear main. I know the aligment was off so Im going to need to do that. I guess its time to use the search function
