Detailed Description
CSF 3800 is designed for cooling-system service on the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon platform. The radiator uses a 1-row aluminum core with plastic tanks in a down-flow layout, matching the OE-style architecture for straightforward replacement and proper hose alignment. The 2022 Colorado and Canyon applications use an upgraded heavy-duty core that is 11% thicker than the OEM 14 mm design, while 2015-2021 models follow the OE-style fitment profile.
CSF manufactures radiators for a wide range of vehicle applications and validates cooling performance through laboratory wind-tunnel testing. Part number 3800 is built to support factory-style cooling system restoration on the Colorado and Canyon platform without changing the original radiator layout.
This part cross-references OSC 13501 for the same application.
