Common Reasons to Replace the Radiator

• Engine overheating from reduced coolant flow or internal restriction
• Coolant leaks from cracked tanks, seams, or damaged core tubes
• Transmission temperature concerns when the integrated cooler is no longer performing properly
• Cooling system inefficiency caused by corrosion, clogging, or age-related wear
• Fitment issues after collision damage or prior repair work

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify inlet and outlet hose sizes before installation, and confirm the radiator matches the vehicle’s transmission cooler routing. For 1995-1997 Ford Crown Victoria, 1995-1997 Lincoln Town Car, and 1995-1997 Mercury Grand Marquis applications, inspect hoses, clamps, thermostat, and coolant condition during replacement to help restore proper system performance. Flush the cooling system if contamination or debris is present.
