btw, the masterpro 21623 is the right lower. for the upper I reused the 2.9 hose that was on it. The 4.0 upper hose loops way around and would go through the alternator and interfere with the alternator belt. The "kink" in that 2.9 hose mentioned by others is totally nothing, I did not trim any off or change anything.
I will also say I have a renewed empathy for you 4.0L guys, there is no room between the blades and shroud and all that to fight those OEM style hose clamps - just too tight and I have little girly hands. I ended up getting a screwdriver style hose clamp and one hand fiddling with it to get it tight (atfer spending an hour fighting it before giving up).
