a relief to learn the front grill does not need to come off too
Watched your video for a refresher take out. 2nd one on my 97 xj. You were spot on as always. Went flawless. Not being a mechanic but being a jeep owner and not being able to remember quite as well. Boink!!!
Install is the same as reverse? Except for that cut transmission line. I'm going to need my transmission after I put in my new radiator. Guess I'll look up how to do that but use the tool instead.
Come on Bleep, don't cut the line. What if someone needs that?! Bleepin Jeep.
thanks Bleep!!!:/
Just did this last week. My son's XJ radiator clogged and blew the passenger side tank off while I was driving at midnight in a snow event. I had to drive another 10 minutes with no coolant to get to work. Got a new radiator and had it swapped out in an hour, the most difficult part being the ATF line and running to HF to get the proper tool deep enough to release it. Overheated the 4.0 with no issues. It was so hot it stalled and wouldn't turn over once I got it to work. We trailered it home the next day.
I'm GONNA change the radiator I put atifree, and yes it was dirty this jeep needs ALOT OF LOVE.
Bud you really need a little electric impact... holy smokes they make everything go so much faster.
anyone know what size to but that disconnect tool in I'm aiming to do the project tomorrow and need to know asap
3/8
3:48 So I cut the line and now the customer says I owe them a new transmission line, what do I do next?
Perfect video....tools needed and everything
It’s hilarious to see XJ that are not in areas with road salt. My XJ is from Arizona and has only been in Michigan 5 years. It took me two days to get this radiator out along with a new trans line with quick connect because everything was rusty. Spent two days and only broke off one core support bolt. It’s shocking what five Michigan winters will do to a vehicle.
ya, northern states suck!
I could of used this a month ago when attempting to replace mine
I have a 2000 Jeep cherokee 4.0 it will not take freon...has been vacuumed. what will cause this...All help appreciated...
Hey Bro Can U Help Me Out. Why Is The Fan Stuck in the defroster, position???
either the cable is kinked or stuck... or there is something in the heater core box blocking the door that swings back and fourth! th-cam.com/video/ceSUVtJnZMo/w-d-xo.html
How do you know the used radiator is good? And when should I get a new one
you totally just cut the lower cooler line instead of taking it off. your a joke 😅

Thanks matt!!
Great job
can anyone tell me what is a good way to clean mud out of the radiator and motor
Ive had good luck with degreaser and AC coil cleaner (Home Depot)
it is inside the radiator when i take the cap off the water looks muddy
I still don't know where to get those transmission cooler fittings , where do i get those?
Hardware store, auto store, or order them online
Hi Mat hope you have a great 2019
I live in a desert zone and it gets to 100+ in the summer, my OEA cooling system is well mainteined and works as it should but 100+ is just too much Im planing on buy a 3 row rad/3 elect fan kit called the triple thread from FFDynamics Id like to know if you have ear something about this kit and if you recomend this type of upgrade( 3row and elec fan)
Never hear of that one... I have a novak conversions and it's a beast... pricey but best you can get. Tell em I sent ya!
Thks Mat I’ll give it a look
I have a question I got a 1988 Jeep Cherokee XJ 4.0 automatic transmission but I don't want to cut the bottom transmission line who am I how would I take it out and put the new radiator and then out damaging anything
There’s a clip, it just pops out when you squeeze it in the tranny side. On the radiator side it unscrews.
@@bleepinjeep What kind of special tool do we need to access this clip?
I could have used this video two weeks ago. :P
Any ADVICE on lockers
Yes, Google bleepinjeep lockers
not sure why anyone would buy a radiator out of a junkyard. Plus you would not want to use the transmission cooler on a used radiator and the cost to get cooler cleaned would cost more than a new radiator to begin with
+marble head what happens if you find an aluminum 4 core radiator in the salvage yard?
Hey guys, he's only showing how to remove a radiator if you need to for whatever reason. Not everyone can afford a new one and besides, some these old ones are okay.
was your video made for the expert ? yes or no
If yes then the expert would know the risks of a used radiator and if they needed something special or found some aftermarket gem then its a win for the salvage yard
if no then when making videos someone that knows nothing it probably helps to warn someone that junk yard radiators might not be the best thing to do for your car without proper cleaning and then they risks of the dirty transmission cooler from the donor vehicle contaminating your transmission with shrapnel
True Story
Pull-a-part price RADIATOR (W/O SHROUD)$42.50$6.50 core
Jeep wrangler radiator new from eBay
$58 shipped to your door ( to my door a month ago)
$0 core
In this case the salvage yard might not be a good deal after all
Plastic ages with time and some parts are not worth the risk buying used for the regular person trying to fix their car trying not to end up broken down on the side of the road ( maybe my new one will do the same thing only time will tell )
you never know what you gonna find in a junkyard, sometime people just throw thigns away without knowing their value or if they work or not...
I wish he would've showed how to tell if the radiator is good from the junk yard
eugene labranch I can't think of any way other than a quick visual inspection. Not like you can pressurize it to see if it leaks.
forget used and just buy new
Those trans lines come undone by hand, fyi.
Your going to use that radiator? Good luck with that. Probably leaks worse than the one your changing.
I was on the fence about that. The trouble is most original radiators are almost 20 years old. If I had my heart set on using a recycled one I would not use it unless I took it to a radiator shop. Saving a few bucks ain't worth being stuck in the woods or on some highway.
