'95 Cirrus w/2.5, Water by-pass pipe has corrosion failure and the parts is no longer available at the dealer and Dorman Auto is not yet producing them. I even combed thru eBay with no luck. Is there a mod out there to make something else work?
Water by-pass pipe #MD322430 NLA

i'm glad you found one. Usually a yard won't sell a part off of a working engine and the non-working ones get sent for recycling ASAP (especially aluminum).

I am looking for a Pipe for my 99 Sebring JXI
Looking at the http://www.sebringclub.net/pdf/sebring96-00parts.pdf that is so graciously provided, I need specific Part #MD322430 (#18 in the Cooling Diagram).
Does anyone have this for sale?

Welcome to Allpar. Chrysler may be totally out of them. You might try your friendly, local Mitsubishi dealer for ordering or a national search or investigate the international (russian, european, etc) website part availability that shows up in a Google search.
No doubt that these are becoming rare until a vendor reproduces replacement ones? Best of Luck to you.

For Mitsubishi Dealer: Would the part number be the same?

Yes, it is a Mitsubishi part number. I have a '98 JX with the Mitsubishi 2.5L engine also.
Has your old tube corroded? Keeping the HOAT coolant and distilled water 50/50 mixture fresh every 5 years is important for reducing antifreeze-caused corrosion. The heads, radiator and water pump are aluminum.

Per my mechanic--everything else is fine. It's just that 1 piece---I had a leak which is caused by the 2 rubber hoses connected, and when they saw the 2 rubber hoses, they noticed how badly rusted out the Pipe was--hence why we want to replace it. I'm planning on calling the closest Mitsubishi dealer and hoping for good luck!
Will Update once I hear.

Also: Is the Pipe just more susceptible to rust? Cause it isn't corroded persay--I could technically drive it and be perfectly fine, but with how much rust is on it, no one knows how soon it would cause significant leaks and such

Mine is the 2.4 V6 version. I'm just curious how common it is for that part to rust.

They did not recognize the part number in their system? Could it be something different?

I was told by 2 different Mitsubishi Dealers that the part # Was invalid.

Have them look it up by application for example a 1999 V6 Galant. The Cyclone engine family shares many parts.
You have the 6G73 engine.

What would I ask them?
I need the By Pass Pipe in the Cooling System for The Mitsubishi 6G73 Engine? Is that what I would say?

This appears like the same part--can someone tell me if it is so I can get it? A friend found it for me. I believe it is it, but want to make sure.

It looks like the same part, but why 3 different part numbers? MD322430 and MD198102 and MD315274 are all listed for the 1999 Sebring 2.5L engine.
Possibly one is for the Sebring DiamondStar coupe which was a different vehicle than the domestic convertible. The convertible was built closer to the Cirrus sedan body. I don't have the Mitsubishi parts catalog.
MD198102 does show in the 1998 JX parts catalog. The Dorman tube may work.
