Product Details

TYC Radiator 2979 is engineered around the listed core dimensions, tube layout, and fin density to match the cooling package used in supported Mitsubishi vehicles. The aluminum core, 48 total tubes, and 49 total fin rows support heat dissipation in everyday driving conditions. This radiator is a fitment-based replacement for Mitsubishi Lancer, Mitsubishi Outlander, and Mitsubishi Outlander Sport applications where the original unit uses hose clamp connections and no integrated oil coolers.

Compatible With select Mitsubishi Lancer, Outlander, and Outlander Sport models, this radiator is a practical replacement when the original unit is leaking, restricted, or no longer maintaining stable coolant temperatures. Part number 2979 is also a useful reference when comparing OE and aftermarket cooling system replacements for these Mitsubishi platforms.

Common Cooling System Issues It Can Address

• Coolant leaks from a damaged or corroded radiator core
• Overheating caused by restricted coolant flow
• Reduced cooling performance from aging internal tubes or fins
• Physical damage to the radiator from road debris or vibration
• Replacement needs after a failed original radiator on Mitsubishi Lancer, Outlander, or Outlander Sport models
