Its crossflow flow configuration allows coolant to move horizontally across the core, improving heat exchange efficiency. The radiator’s core dimensions—8.62 inches in height, 25.59 inches in length, and 2.52 inches in thickness—are tailored to fit the cooling system requirements of these Ram models. Both the top and bottom headers measure 3.27 by 9.45 inches, providing structural support and ensuring proper coolant distribution. The inlet and outlet connections use hose clamps with a 2.36-inch diameter, facilitating secure and leak-free hose attachment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Problem Solving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces damaged or leaking radiators in Ram 1500 and 1500 Classic vehicles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses engine overheating issues caused by inefficient cooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores proper coolant flow with crossflow design for improved heat dissipation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolves coolant leaks at inlet or outlet connections due to worn hose clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports engine performance by maintaining stable operating temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the TYC radiator 18028, ensure compatibility with Ram 1500 and 1500 Classic models by verifying part number and dimensions. Use appropriate hose clamps sized for the 2.36-inch inlet and outlet diameters to secure coolant hoses. Inspect the radiator mounting points and headers (3.27x9.45 inches) for proper alignment. It is recommended to flush the cooling system before installation to remove debris and contaminants that could affect radiator performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTYC radiators are manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications, providing reliable cooling system performance.
