I want to start of by saying that your channel is by far one of the top greatest and helpful one. You saved me lot's of time and money today. My radiator on my 98' Chevy Silverado had a leak. I found the leak when I was underneath the truck greasing my ball joints. I freaked out for my truck is my only transportation for me and my family. I was going to take it to a mechanic, but then I remembered about your channel. For I've visited it for some tips on a 97' Ford I had. I took the radiator out and followed every step you did. I didn't use a pan to catch the coolant, I just let it drain on my grass. 2 days later which is today, I bought my new radiator and installed it just as you showed in the 2nd video. It was a success and no problems nor leaks. Thank you sir!! 👍
+Samuel Hermosillo Thanks for checking us out Sam. If you would like to leave a Google review for us, here's a link to our review section. Have a great day! goo.gl/Id4soE
my 96 silverado radiator blew, so in the next two weeks i planned on taking it into the shop, but after watching this video it seems so simple to do it yourself.i think ill give it a shot! thanks for the great tutorial much appreciated.
Just for fun go look in your tool box, see if you have a 25/32 wrench. Wow what a difficult wrench to try buy in town, thnx for video
I am literally about to install a new radiator into my car now. The current one busted a couple weeks ago. Won't hold liquid for more than about 10 minutes. Got an all aluminum one which I hope is an upgrade.
Thanks for the video. This should make it fast and easy to remove and install the new one.
I've replaced the radiator in my 1996 Tahoe about 2 years ago. Not a hard job at all. Yet the quotes I get to R&R it are insane. Close to $250! It may be 38 degrees out but I'll install it myself before I pay that!
Thank you, I have worked on cars and trucks all my life . It is great to get a brush up on this , as I just got my first Suburban , used for cheep , and it is 95% in great condition. Just spotted a old crack in the radiator , expect to put a few 100 in up grades. I have a feeling I will be keeping this beast for a long time . Thanks again :)

@bobcats330 There are coolants on the market now that are made to be mixed with any color.
The two larger in diameter hoses are your oil cooler lines. They will each be on the same side. These often fail on GM vehicles and in fact in this video you can see one has failed (notice all the leaking oil). The smaller diameter hoses (metal hoses) are your transmission cooler lines and will be resident on the opposite side from the oil lines.
Wow so this particular vehicle has a oil cooler and transmission cooler in the radiator never seen this setup before
@impolw22 Yes you will want to get all that Dexcool out and replace it with regular antifreeze
I subscribed yesterday. Thanks for the vids on the 96 K1500 Suburban. I have learned a helluva lot about the little quirks of this model and have already done several repairs from this info! I always loved these truck but it was only last June until I became the proud owner of one... a 1997 K2500 with a 7.4 liter gas-guzzling Big Block! It can be a huge PITA to maintain. ...but what really pisses me off is that I love my big BURB!

There is a green coolant that they sell that does say "for use with all coolant colors" or something to that effect.
I will be doing this to a '97 Tahoe this weekend, so this vid helped. thx!
I hope you check this. I have coolant that was literally pissing out from behind a cap that was put on with a hose clamp on that top port. The cap seems to balloon when it heats up. You said it was blocked on yours. Do I need yet another new rad within a year of changing it
I hate factory spring clamps. Good for manufacture but not maintenance friendly. I always replace them with worm drive hose clamps. Once a spring clamp has been disturbed, it may... or may not provide enough clamping force for a good seal. Why take the chance? Worm drive hose clamps are much better, in my humble opinion...based on 40+ years of experience... however, use a good quality stainless steel hose clamp.
Thanks for checking us out and your great comments. 1aauto.com +Kevin Kirk
@impolw22 if i remember right, you dont want to use green if you engine is designed for orange or purple. these arent supposed to be interchanged
You should have a couple of transmission lines and possbly also a couple of oil cooler lines.
Thanks for the video just installed a radiator in my 85 Tahoe perfect fit .

I have 96 tahoe replacing the radiator should i get one with or without oil cooler
This is actually a suburban. The process basically the same for all GM SUVs 92-99 and trucks 88-98
1A Auto Parts I have a 97 gmc 1500 z71 but I have no clue of which radiator to buy. There is many options and it hurts my brain. Also is there any upgrade options?
I replaced my water pump today and decided to flush the coolant as it was mostly water and when i turn the drain plug drain everything and then it started leaking from the bottom of the drain plug as im feeling under it its like a small steem that there may have been a lock on the drain and i broke it i dont beyond frustrated
While you're in there and already have most of the old fluid out, yes it's not a bad idea to do this.
Thank you..
Much Obliged, Will be doin this on a '92 burban.
I think that top fitting is for a resi on a 2000 chevy silverado but not 100%. As always, great video!
You should flush the cooling system when replacing the radiator also replace the thermastat.
That blocked off port on the new rad is for a k2500 that has a separate coolant bottle on the inner fender. Mine is a 01 k2500 8.1 suburban.
An 8.1 owner! The Holy Grail of factory Big Blocks! I found one in a salvage yard for $1300. Should I get it and drop into my 97 K2500 Burb? I'm tempted... Your thoughts?
Do I need to flush the old coolant when I replace my radiator? I will be using the green coolant instead of the red coolant I use now
J Powers, for sure. but i would look up which coolant to be using. don't switch colours just because.
a lot of coolants don't work for all cars. just make sure from your manual book you use the correct one.
what are the lines called on the four ports on radiator one on the bottom is oil line what are the lines called mine broke when taken radiator out need to find out what there called so i can order then i have a 1995 gmc yukon thank u
will this work on 07 silverado's
You pointed out the problem 7:19, a radiator clamp turned sideways, but didn't show how you moved the clamp. I tried raising the radiator but it didn't help. Going down to Harbor Freight to find a pair of short handled pliers. Do you have any thoughts?
If you can't remove the existing clamp, resort to a last measure... Cut the hose off so you can remove the radiator and then once the radiator is out and on a bench, you can easily release the spring clamp. I hate spring clamps. They're good for the manufacturing process but not very maintenance-friendly. I ALWAYS replace them with a quality-grade stainless steel worm drive or band clamp. Hey, the lower radiator hose needed to be replaced anyway...Do yourself a big solid and upgrade your stuff!
@@kevinkirk4285 great suggestion with the worm drive hose clamps!
Awesome video.. Thanks..
+Free Legit Money Game Ideas Thank you for your feedback!
It may be a similar procedure. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
Is this the same process for a 99 chevy express? I just findout my van is leaking coolant from left side of the radiator hope you can help me with that thanks
+Miguel Cruz it may me a similar process on that vehicle. We carry new radiators for your van. Here's a link to the 1500 series if that's what you have. Hope this helps you out www.1aauto.com/1999-chevy-express-1500-van-radiator/y-mo-c/1999-1748-34?TH-cam&CTA%20Comment&ATony
Hey, i have a 1997 2500 with the vortec 5.7 350, am i suppose to use the orange dexcool or the green stuff?
+mutanay77 We would suggest verifying this information with your owner's manual or the dealership as we do not have that specification available to us.
Supposedly, some companies like Prestone state that their fluid is compatible with all colors. I however am very skeptical so I picked up 2 gallons of the GM Dex-cool(concentrated type) from Walmart for $15 each. A little more than Prestone but preferable for 2000 GMC Sierra 5.7 Vortec
@@luissonoma6255 If GM approves it for your Sierra, you're good to go. Good on ya for keeping up an older vehicle. I have learned over the years that factory parts are more reliable and consistent, although more expensive. Case in point, I'll spend the extra $100 for a fuel pump that doesn't take a shit after only 50 miles...
What model tahoe is this?
You must tell from what to what year is this for!!!!!!!
+Kristibild EOOD (0:35) - The vehicle we used is a 1999 Chevy Suburban but this works for most GM trucks & SUVs between the years 1988-2000
Thanks for watching 888-844-3393
I watched the vid to see how to remove transmission lines without warping the metal
A 25/32??? That converts to a 13/16. Should work the same, yes???????
Skipped the most important part of the removal which is the removal of the metal lines smh
+SUFX AKUAKASI Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.
This is the first videos by A1 Auto that I don't like. Your not actually showing me what I need to see.
+Brian Sturtevant Thanks for the feedback!
