Message: [QUOTE="Mishimoto, post: 1098072, member: 10602"] Hey guys, Figured we would chime in here to provide some answers to your questions! I apologize for the issues you are having with radiator replacement! After noticing that a few customers were still having repetitive failures after converting to our aluminum radiator, our team decided to check into the radiator/vehicle design. Our goal was to try and determine if any other vehicle factors may effect the lifespan of the radiator. In our investigation, we found several components which should be checked and/or replaced. Most of these items are related to Ford TSB's or general maintenance items. Take a look at our checklist at the link below for additional information. [url]http://engineering.mishimoto.com/?cat=105[/url] Yes, the body/cab mounts appear to be a big contributor to radiator flex and failure. We highly recommend checking these and replacing them if possible. The job is lengthy and not exactly simple, but it is certainly worth doing. Take a look at the worn/cracked mounts we pulled off of a truck we had in the shop a few weeks ago.

Normally these mounts get to the point where they simply crumble and become completely useless. Thanks! Our existing radiator design is extremely robust. We are very confident that our product will provide reliable performance as long as your maintenance and TSB's are up to date! Feel free to follow up with any questions! [/QUOTE]
