Do I need a new thermostat and hoses when I install this radiator?

The radiator itself doesn't require new hoses or thermostat to bolt in, but inspect your existing coolant hoses for cracks or soft spots while you're in there. If they look original and worn, replacing them at the same time saves you a second job down the line.

Can I reuse my old coolant, or do I need to flush the system?

Flush the system before you install the new radiator. Old coolant often carries sediment that can clog a fresh core. Use the coolant type specified in your owner's manual—don't mix types.

What if the radiator leaks after I install it—what's the return process?

Inspect the radiator before installation and test-fit it in the bay to catch any shipping damage. If you discover a defect after purchase, contact support with photos of the damage and your order number for next steps.
