Lower radiator hose question?

[adam92]

So while everything is apart,I decided to change the lower radiator hose since it's easy to get to.So I go to the auto store,and they have the hose,but the one I pulled off the Ty has the spring in it(don't know if it's the original or not),and the one I got at the store doesn't have the spring.So is this hose going to collapse,or is it safe to put on?

I'd just take the spring out of the old one and put it in the new one.

I already planned on that,but I was just wondering why the replacement hose didn't have the spring in it?

It should have had the spring in it.

I know,that's what I thought to,but it didn't.I just took the one out of the old hose,cleaned it up,and put it in the new hose.
