Detailed Description
TYC Radiator 2186 is built for 1997-1998 Dodge Dakota applications that use standard duty cooling. The aluminum core, crossflow flow configuration, and integrated cooler circuits are specified to match the cooling and fluid-routing needs of the original setup. With hose clamp inlet and outlet connections, this radiator is suited to factory-style replacement work where fitment and cooling-system compatibility matter.

For this application, part number 2186 includes both transmission oil cooler and engine oil cooler provisions, making it a practical choice for a Dodge Dakota radiator replacement where those functions are part of the original configuration. This part cross-references APDI 8012186 and Spectra Premium CU2186 for the same application.
Common Problems This Radiator Addresses
- Coolant leaks from a damaged or corroded radiator core
- Overheating caused by restricted or inefficient heat exchange

- Engine oil cooling concerns when the original cooler passages are compromised
- Fitment problems from using a radiator that does not match the Dakota cooling configuration
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the vehicle is a 1997-1998 Dodge Dakota with standard duty cooling before installation. Confirm inlet and outlet hose sizes, cooler line routing, and mounting dimensions against the original radiator. Inspect hoses, clamps, and cooler lines for wear before transferring the new radiator into service. Proper system bleeding and coolant refill procedures should be followed after installation.
