Will this radiator work with my current hoses and connections?

Check your existing hose diameters and inlet/outlet port sizes before ordering. Factory radiators typically match OEM specs, but verify your hose sizes match the port configuration on this unit.

Do I need to replace the coolant when I install this?

It's best practice to flush your cooling system and fill with fresh coolant when swapping radiators. Old coolant can contain debris and sediment that will clog a new unit.

What should I do before installing?

Allow the engine to cool completely, remove the negative battery terminal, drain the old coolant into a proper container, and disconnect the upper and lower hoses. Don't force anything—hardware should come apart cleanly with light pressure.
