Detailed Description

OSC part number 2258 is a direct-fit radiator engineered for the Ford Freestar and Ford Windstar cooling system layout. The unit uses a crossflow configuration with plastic tanks and a premium core design to match original equipment dimensions and mounting requirements. It also includes a transmission oil cooler, which is important for vehicles that route automatic transmission fluid through the radiator assembly.

The radiator is built with enhancements aimed at improving durability in higher-mileage vehicles, including a thicker core and added fin density where applicable. OSC also tests the cooler circuits and completed assembly during production to help verify sealing and performance before installation. This part cross-references APDI 8012258 and Spectra Premium CU2258 for the same application.

Common Problems This Radiator Can Address

• Coolant leaks from a cracked or aging radiator tank
• Overheating caused by restricted or inefficient heat transfer
• Transmission fluid temperature concerns related to a failing cooler circuit
• Physical damage to the core, fins, or header areas
• Cooling performance loss in high-mileage Ford Freestar or Windstar vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify inlet and outlet hose sizes, cooler line routing, and mounting points before installation. Flush the cooling system, inspect hoses and clamps, and confirm the transmission cooler connections are clean and secure. This radiator is designed for factory-style replacement in 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and 1999-2003 Ford Windstar models, so matching the vehicle’s original cooling configuration is important for proper installation.

Quality Assurance

OSC radiators are built to OE-style specifications and individually pressure tested during production. The design uses premium-grade materials and factory-matched components to support consistent fitment and cooling performance in Ford Freestar and Ford Windstar applications.
