That's great. I have a early production 2000 the date on them was like 10-99.So it's a bad thing that my 2001 has a top rad hose that is marked 10-31-00?
It's on my list of stuff to do. It's a long list.

Your water pump has possibly been replaced several times. I only got four years out of a Brand New Napa Pump.
Gates will be fine probably cheaper too. The lower hose removal is not going to be easy if it has the original spring clamp on the end that goes to the Radiator. I ended up having to remove the lower Trans cooler line to make room to get the clamp off even with a special spring clamp pliers.
Those clamps are best to keep also. I always resuse them. Constant tension clamps beat a screw or worm gear clamp anyday
They don't loosen up that's for sure.
I think you can rule out the T-Stat. Those New Radiators make a big difference so you got that Handled. I never had that issue but everything you have done is exactly what I would of done.
