You might want to mention the special 3/8″ compression fitting tool to take
off the bottom transmission fitting. Knowing this ahead of time turns a 2hr
job into a 30 minute job.
Nice job– showed how easy it is to do. But I did not need to take off the
turn signal lights or headlight frame as you did. So the tabs on the fan
shroud would fit in the new radiator frame slots, I did have to hacksaw
away extra (unneeded) metal parts of the new rad frame. And I had to remove
the upper rad hose to allow the coolant mixture to flow in quicker. Thanks
for your video!
Great Video..thank you very much. Stupid question. Can you collect and
re-use the radiator fluid? If so, what is the best way to collect the
radiator fluid and refill? Based on the tips you provide on the video, I
want to try to do this repair myself that I would not have attempted
without your video.
Hey what size are the two nuts that hold the radiator to the cover plate?
I’m talking about the ones that go over the two threaded posts. I can’t
seem to find them.
Very helpful… Bout to do my 96. One question, I see you have external
trans cooler. If I’m using the onboard cooler in the rad, is it necessary
to prime the reservoir with ATF before running?
@Excursion911 There is a spigot at the bottom of the radiator. Just use a
bucket to collect it and reuse if wanted — if it is in good shape; which
if it is leaking, then, most likely it is, since it is probably pretty
fresh.
thanks for the video guys! because of you, my bf is soo impressed with me
being able to change my radiator! and your TPB reference did not go
unnoticed!! good jahb there ah bubbles!
Don’t ya hate it when it takes longer to explain something than to do it?
Oh, and if it is a manual trans radiator, then it would be easier, since
you don’t have the lines for the transmission. You saved me some time, for
sure — it would not have been as good looking it up in the book!

Very helpful, thanks for making it!
Thank you for posting this video, I just replaced my radiator on my 97′
Jeep Cherokee Sport and have never replaced a rad in my life.
