  • Damaged mounting surfaces or bolt holes
  • Replacement of a thermostat housing assembly that uses a separate thermostat
  • Restoring proper coolant routing on Lincoln Aviator cooling systems

Installation Notes

Verify the inlet diameter, bolt-hole spacing, and overall height against the removed part before installation. Because the gasket or seal is not included, transfer or replace the sealing components as required for a proper coolant seal. Confirm thermostat requirements for the vehicle, since this inlet is supplied without a thermostat.
