Key Features

• Heavy-duty radiator construction for demanding cooling-system service
• Engineered to meet or exceed original equipment performance targets
• Supports both engine and transmission cooling circuits where equipped
• OE-style replacement for Freightliner FLD120 radiator, FLD112 radiator, and FLD132 radiator applications
• Part number 2001-1713 for accurate ordering and catalog matching

Detailed Description

Spectra Premium designs this radiator with manufacturing controls and engineering standards aimed at consistent cooling performance in heavy-duty use. The 2001-1713 radiator is built for direct replacement service on Freightliner FLD trucks, helping restore proper heat transfer when the original radiator is worn, leaking, or no longer maintaining stable operating temperatures. This part cross-references Anchor 8016 for the same application.

Common Problems This Radiator Can Address

• Coolant leaks from a damaged or aging radiator core
• Overheating caused by restricted heat dissipation
• Temperature instability during heavy-load operation
• Reduced cooling efficiency in engine and transmission systems
• Replacement needs for a Freightliner FLD120, FLD112, or FLD132 radiator

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify radiator dimensions, hose connections, and transmission cooler routing before installation. Flush the cooling system, inspect hoses and clamps, and confirm the fan, shroud, and coolant condition are serviceable before placing the vehicle back in operation. For fitment verification, match the vehicle to the listed Freightliner FLD applications and confirm the part number 2001-1713 against the existing unit.

Quality Assurance

Spectra Premium states that its heavy-duty radiators are engineered and quality-controlled to meet or exceed OE performance expectations for the components they replace.
