Here's what I used after finding this information in the engine section of this forum.
Upper radiator hose, Cub part# IH-1286631-C1 / 735-3020
suitable replacement: Kubota part# K7311-85150, made for the Kubota RTV utility vehicles.
The 7311-85150 hose has a 3" long "bell" section at the radiator end of the hose to accommodate a bigger radiator outlet. You just cut this bigger end off and the remaining piece is a perfect fit.
I bought mine from Kubota Parts Depot for $22.55 plus shipping. As for the lower hose, so far discussion has been to use 7/8" heater hose, but it is hard to locate. I am toying with the idea of having heavy wall tubing bent and use straight rubber hose to couple at each end. I may also try to find pre-bent shapes and weld them together. I've built headers for performance cars and this would be a similar process. If I do, I'll post pictures and list the components. Stan
