Re: Summit Radiator

yea, ive had it for a little over a year with 0 issues. its not a "direct fit" its thicker than stock. you have to mod the rubber pads the rad sits on. just gotta trim off a little piece. also i couldnt get the stock hold down to work either.

Re: Summit Radiator

Its funny that they call it a direct fit. I bought one few years ago and it was supposed to be a direct fit. Well, with a hammer and some cutting tools almost everything is a "direct fit"

Re: Summit Radiator

Be prepared to make some modifications. Not just a drop in deal. I did this about 2 years ago. Take your time, the previous posts are accurate, this will work with some "crafting". To the uneducated eye mine looks stock, and I am not the best crafter out there. Good luck!
