New Radiator install
stock radiator is leaking so I bought a all aluminum replacement from summit. Never changed a radiator before. It looks pretty straight forward. Anything I need to be aware of?

Re: New Radiator install
Be Very Careful removing & reconnecting the lines & fittings.
You may want to pre soak them with PB Blaster before removing them.
This is to lower the likelyhood of twisting any lines.
Before you just install it & reattach the lines, test fit it to make sure you do or do not have to trim the rubber isolaters.
