Did some searching all over the internet and find lacking info.

What I need is to know what brands go larger in diameter than 1.5" hose size and exactly how large they indeed go.

I am looking to get some pliers and even manufacturers websites tell me the silly 24" cable length but don't bother stating what size hose it will work with. Along with my maxi I have an suv and hoses are larger.

I can almost always find info I need but this is not one of those times, unfortunately.

Thanks.

 

I've seen that style before but never used them. I've found the smaller hoses are harder to get to and I tend to use double jointed pliers for that (cresent double x I believe they are called are the best value, gearwrench has a nice assortment of that style though), for larger hoses with spring tension hose clamps I use channel locks.
