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

Yes. Drain the old coolant completely and flush the system with distilled water to clear any sediment or debris. This prevents contamination from affecting your new radiator's performance.

Will this bolt up to my existing hoses and brackets?

Factory mounting points are preserved, so brackets bolt up as original. Your existing inlet and outlet hoses should fit — measure hose diameter and connection type before ordering to confirm compatibility.

Is this a new or refurbished unit?

This is a replacement radiator assembly. Verify condition details with your order confirmation or reach out directly if you need to confirm whether it's new or professionally remanufactured stock.
