Do I need to flush my cooling system before installing this?

Yes. Run a complete coolant flush and rinse the system thoroughly to remove sediment and debris. This prevents contamination from settling in your new radiator core.

Will this work with my existing hoses and clamps?

The connection points are OEM-spec, so factory hoses fit directly. Inspect hoses for cracks or deterioration while you're in there—swap them out if needed to avoid leaks down the road.

What coolant should I use after installation?

Refer to your vehicle's service manual for the correct coolant type and fill capacity. Using the wrong formula can affect cooling performance and longevity.
