Do I need a new thermostat or hoses with this radiator?

Not necessarily. If your existing hoses are soft, cracked, or over 8 years old, replace them while you're in there. Thermostat replacement depends on your cooling system's history—if the old radiator failed from overheating, test the thermostat before assuming it's bad.

Will this bolt straight in, or do I need new mounting hardware?

This radiator uses factory mounting points and will fit directly into the stock brackets. You'll reuse your existing fasteners. Check them for corrosion or damage during install.

What if the radiator arrives damaged or fails shortly after install?

Contact us with photos of the damage or failure mode and your receipt. We handle returns through our warehouse in Florida—turn-around is fast. Defective units are replaced; no core charge applies to new radiators.
