Tools Required

J 37097-A Heater Hose Clamp Tool

1. Remove the cooling fans. Refer to Engine Cooling Fan Replacement .



2. Position the J 37097-A to the clamp in order to remove the outlet radiator hose from the radiator.
3. Disconnect the lower transaxle oil cooler line from the radiator.



4. Disconnect the lower engine oil cooler line from the radiator.



5. Remove the 2 condenser mounting bolts.




Important: Care should be taken when removing the condenser not to damage the lower attachment points of both the radiator and condenser.

6. Lift the condenser upward slightly in order to release the lower feet from the lower mounting features located at the front of the radiator.
7. Lift the radiator up and out the vehicle.

1. Install the radiator insulators (1) to the frame.
2. Position the radiator alignment dowels (2) to align with the insulators (1).




Important: Care should be taken when installing the condenser not to damage the lower attachment points of both the radiator and condenser.

3. Position the condenser, aligning the lower feet to the lower mounting features located at the front of the radiator.




Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

Important: The bolts retaining the condenser to the radiator end tanks are a special length and should be the ONLY bolts used upon reinstallation. The use of longer bolts will damage the radiator end tanks.

4. Install the condenser mounting bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 13 N·m (115 lb in).




5. Connect the lower engine oil cooler line to the radiator.

Tighten
Tighten the line to 18 N·m (13 lb ft).





Important: Ensure the transaxle oil cooler line is positioned upwards while tightening.

6. Connect the lower transaxle oil cooler line to the radiator.

Tighten
Tighten the line to 35 N·m (26 lb ft).




7. Position the J 37097-A to the clamp in order to connect the outlet radiator hose to the radiator.
