Product Details

This CSF radiator is part of the 1 Row Plastic Tank Aluminum Core line, a product family focused on OE-style fitment and cooling efficiency. CSF manufactures radiators to high-performance standards and validates designs with wind tunnel testing, drawing on decades of radiator production experience across a broad range of vehicle applications. Part number 3244 is engineered for Jeep cooling system service where a replacement radiator must match the original layout and hose connections.

Compatible With 1987-1995 Jeep Wrangler and 1997-2006 Jeep TJ and Wrangler applications, CSF 3244 is built for vehicles that use a straight oil cooler fitting pipe and a down-flow radiator configuration. This radiator cross-references Spectra Premium CU2101 for the same application.

Common Problems This Radiator Addresses

• Overheating caused by a worn or restricted radiator core
• Coolant leaks from aging plastic tanks or weakened seams
• Reduced heat transfer from a damaged or clogged cooling assembly
• Transmission or engine cooling concerns tied to an inefficient radiator and oil cooler setup
• Fitment issues when replacing an OE-style Jeep TJ or Wrangler radiator

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify inlet and outlet orientation before installation: inlet right, outlet left.
• Confirm the vehicle uses the straight oil cooler fitting pipe noted in the fitment data.
• Check hose condition, clamps, and mounting points during radiator replacement.
• Flush the cooling system before installing the new radiator to remove debris and old coolant.
• Inspect the fan shroud and related cooling components for wear while the system is open.
