Do I need new hoses or can I reuse my existing ones?

Inspect your current hoses for cracks, splits, or hardening before installation. If they're original to the vehicle, replace them while you have the radiator out — the labor is already there. New hoses prevent leaks after you've done the work.

What mounting hardware do I need?

This assembly mounts at factory attachment points on your engine bay. Fasteners and brackets are designed for OEM fitment, but confirm all mounting bolts and clips are present before installation. Refer to your vehicle service manual for torque specifications.

Should I flush the cooling system before installing this?

Yes. Drain and flush the entire system to remove old coolant and debris before the new radiator goes in. Clean coolant protects the new core and oil cooler from buildup and corrosion.
