Where to get Lower Radiator Hose...

I've just went through two lower radiator hoses trying to get the things to stop collapsing. Could someone please tell me where I can get a good quality hose that has the spring inside? Hopefully I can get one without having to go to the dealer or I'll be down for a week till I can get time off work. Thanks!

The lower hoses from Autozone or Advance auto will not have the spring in them when they should to avoid collapsing. These places sell the economy hoses and I went through this when buying hoses for my car. Napa and Carquest brand are made by Gates and will have the spring and will be better quality.
