    Perfect fit. The amazingly sad part is that my radiator replacement was not ruined by Autoshack. It was actually ruined by Ford, the manufacturer of my truck sold me the wrong pipe for the radiator.So far I have not had any issues with the parts I have bought from Autoshack.

    This fit perfectly for my 2001 Ford Sport Trac and at a better cost than the local auto parts company.

    This radiator fit fine and works fine. One problem: ATF leakage at the inlet and outlet ATF cooler fittings. The adapter that came with the radiator doesn’t match the one in the Amazon product display photo #2. I attached an annotated photo the show the adapter setup on the new radiator. The adapter fittings arrived hand tight (both the nut adjacent to the plastic part of the radiator, and the adapter between that fitting and the original AFT line fitting). The O-ring fitting held pressure fine – but the pipe threads on the radiator side of the adapter leaked even after wrench tightening. Web search found lots of articles with folks using teflon tape and PTFE pipe thread sealant. I used PTFE which worked fine, no leakage since. Possibly useful tip if you have to fiddle with these fittings after installing the new radiator: remove the two fan shroud bolts and pull up and out on the shroud and just let it rest on the fan. That provides plenty of hand and wrench access.I was surprised that the new radiator’s fin section was half the thickness dimension of my original (1998 Explorer V6 SOHC) radiator. But it looks like later model years were originally installed with similarly thin fin sections, though the plastic end cap pieces have the same thicker dimensions. So far the thinner version has had no trouble maintaining desired engine temps.

    Fit perfect into my manual transmission Ranger Edge 3.0 gas truck. Had to replace an old one that I had foolishly put a bottle of cheap copper stop leak in to fix my heater core (it didnt fix the heater core, just made a gunky mess. Don’t use that stuff y’all) and it finally just got the thermastat and radiator reclogged up after being flushed after repair and radiator started leaking after being in the system for about 8,000 milesThis one fit in perfect and I had it hooked up in just a few minutes. Radiator was packaged well and was received as promised on time

    Leaked but fully refunded without taking it back. If your not afraid of a little work take the chance.
