Detailed Description

TYC Radiator 2291 is engineered as a replacement radiator for Dodge Ram trucks that need dependable engine cooling and integrated automatic transmission fluid cooling. The aluminum core, 48-tube layout, and crossflow configuration support heat dissipation in demanding truck use, while the included plate oil cooler adds transmission cooling capability without requiring a separate unit.

What It Helps Address

• Overheating caused by a worn or restricted radiator
• Transmission temperature rise from a failing cooler circuit
• Coolant leaks from aged radiator tanks or core seams
• Reduced cooling efficiency in high-load truck operation
• Fitment issues when replacing an OE-style Dodge Ram radiator

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify inlet and outlet hose sizes, transmission cooler line connection type, and core dimensions before installation. Flush the cooling system, inspect hoses and clamps, and confirm the radiator mounts and shrouding align with the vehicle before filling with the correct coolant mixture. For best results, check for debris in the condenser and cooling stack during replacement.
