Looks easy but if you try it on your own, it's difficult as h3ll. The power from the fan is so difficult to remove. The quick disconnects are not quick at all.
@I Pronox: reason your Hayden 678 model blew is because of its plate and fin design that’s more restrictive to fluid flow than the traditional pipe and fin type cooler is. I read an Amazon customer comment where they said they complained of pump whine with the 678 (same as yours). The whining noise remains to exist in drive, park and neutral. Then they replaced it with a traditional pipe and fin type cooler to get just as much cooling outcome and get the pump whine disappear. The transmission’s pump giving whining noise and also likely working harder is obviously because of presumably the added resistance to fluid flow that’s inherent with the plate style design of the fluid’s “race-way”. When I read that feedback I immediately returned 698 model (similar to 678 but a little bigger in size) I had bought. As a substitute, I bought the 516 model - the biggest size for the good-old and time tested pipe and fin design. Hayden says their plate and fin type coolers are 33% more efficient than the pipe and fin type ones, but taking into consideration the winning pump situation with plate and fin coolers is important in making your decision, especially if you’ve an older vehicle. If your vehicle is newer model or if its transmission pump is strong and good enough to handle, fine and go for plate and fin type coolers. Maybe the customer with the negative experience didn’t have a 💯 healthy fluid pump in their transmission.
I recently towed my 64 impala to Vegas in 120* heat. My 2016 Silverado 1500 overheated while towing up the hill from California. Will this help for future?
What is the tool called that kind of looks like reverse pliers? You used it to separate a hose or 2 but did not lost it at the beginning of the video? Thanks for your time.
I bought your transmission cooler since I needed a new one. If I upgrade my radiator to the mishimoto radiator, do you provide caps for the radiator since I have a separate mishimoto transmission cooler.
If you are referring to caps for the transmission cooler ports, we do not. You can leave them open as coolant does not travel to and from the transmission.
If I were successful in plugging up the lines with "gloves" to prevent the tubes from draining. Do I need to add transmission fluid or oil to compensate for the additional core or will I be fine?
You shouldn't have to add much, however, we would suggest checking the level per the factory guidelines on how to do it to be 100% sure before driving.
I have a 2018 Silverado 1500 5.3 and realize my temperature gauge increases to 5/8 or 3/4 before the engine starts cooling. Will this help a lot to maintain the temperature? Also will I need a special pump ?? I know you guys sell the radiator and hose.
My next rad for sure, is it a lot larger than the stock one? It sure looks larger, is the oil cooler part as large as the tow package cooler? The extra money looks well worth it, plastic on the stock rad is garbage...
In terms of height and length, it's the same as the OEM unit. This is a bit thicker when compared to stock as the Mishimoto radiator has a core thickness of 2". This should out perform the OEM radiator/oil cooler provided with the tow package. Thanks!
Two comments. First, put the spring clips on the fitting first. Then all you have to do is push the oil cooler and transmission lines on and it will click in. Second, the bolt that connects holds down the condenser line bracket to the radiator is a 10mm bolt on the passenger side of the radiator tank about half way down.

Of course gm had to add the grey tab slide to make it harder to disconnect the fan plugs! Thankyou for this video!
And you can't even see them lol

How did you remove the "quick disconnect" I am stuck
How did you do it ?
Did anybody figure this out?!?!
You have to slide the gray tab over, I fought with this for half an hour before I figured it out 😂
@@merhar91Can you explain better? Slide which way? Any tabs to depress?

I have a leak on the driver side, should I replace the radiator or hoses?
There isn't enough information here to make that determination.
The gray tab goes which way to disconnect the fan?
So no need to drain first? Just a bolt on and off? What size plug to avoid spillage?
How do you drain the coolant?
On the factory radiator, this requires disconnecting the lower hose on the reservoir tank. (1 x spring clamp)
My mishimoto gets delivered today. Gonna install on Sunday with a 180degree thermostat. Should be a nice combo 😊
My 2017 5.3L looks like the transmission coolant lines go up to the condenser on each side, not the radiator on the driver's side.
What is the tool called that kind of looks like reverse pliers? You used it to separate a hose or 2 but did not lost it at the beginning of the video? Thanks for your time.
These are panel clip pliers, real handy to get these clips off without breaking them.
Will this radiator work on a 2017 gmc Sierra Denali 6.2?
This will fit the following vehicles:
Cadillac Escalade V8 (6.2) 2015-2018

Is there a special plug for the oil cooler line or can i use whatever to prevent it from spilling
This is not something we currently offer. Sorry!
I was wondering the same thing. It would be nice to know where to find them
I stuffed mine with a glove and then paper towels. Held long enough to do the job.
I bought your transmission cooler since I needed a new one. If I upgrade my radiator to the mishimoto radiator, do you provide caps for the radiator since I have a separate mishimoto transmission cooler.
If you are referring to caps for the transmission cooler ports, we do not. You can leave them open as coolant does not travel to and from the transmission.
Good evening, does this video apply for the 2019 Chevy Silverado also?
It's possible, however, we do not offer a radiator for the 2019 models so we cannot confirm this process will be the same.
Does this pair well with a 180 degree thermostat or should I keep the stock one in?
You should not have any issues with this. Thanks!
If I were successful in plugging up the lines with "gloves" to prevent the tubes from draining. Do I need to add transmission fluid or oil to compensate for the additional core or will I be fine?
You shouldn't have to add much, however, we would suggest checking the level per the factory guidelines on how to do it to be 100% sure before driving.
Any videos on how to do the cooling fans
We do not have a direct fit fan shroud kit for this vehicle at this time. Sorry!
Do you need to evacuate the ac system? On a 2017 gmc sierra crew cab v8 5.3L rwd
The A/C system is not removed from the vehicle or drained in our installation guides for this radiator.
@@mishimoto so no need to drain the ac out right?
Correct. The A/C system is not removed from the vehicle or drained in the video or written guide we offer for this product.
I got a tri fan 2020 2.7 4x4 its the same process??
To install a radiator? Unfortunately, this is not something we have documented yet. Sorry!
Do I have to drain the AC at all to remove the radiator?
6 min mark of this video confirms that the AC shouldn't need to be drained.
Thank you for posting such a good video! 👍
Stupid question I'm sure but does this mess with the ac lines?
It does not
Ya I gotter figured out idk much about new vehicles lol my brother got me lmao 🤣
With the setup what kind of trans and engine temps are we looking at ?
We would suggest checking out our Engineering reports on the product page to view all available testing information. Thanks!
Could this apply to Chevy Silverado 6.2 high country
As long as the truck is a 2014+ you should have no issues with the install
Will this radiator work with a 15' Sierra Max Tow (NHT)? I'm on my third OEM radiator and at this point I'm at my wits with GM.
The radiator is compatible with both the 5.3L as well as the 6.2L in your truck. We also retain the oil cooler and transmission cooler for the trucks.
Having the same issue with my
2016 Sierra max tow
Rad 2
Replace the thermostat with an updated one, GM claims that is what breaks the radiator supposedly.
I have a 2018 Silverado 1500 5.3 and realize my temperature gauge increases to 5/8 or 3/4 before the engine starts cooling. Will this help a lot to maintain the temperature? Also will I need a special pump ?? I know you guys sell the radiator and hose.
This will help if the radiator in your vehicle is the problem. Nothing else is needed as per the installation video. ;)
That engine looks that same as my 2015 yukon xl 5.3L would that radiator be the same

What kind of warranty does Mishimoto have for part such as this?
Lifetime
He'll I took mine to Chief Radiator best in Dallas TX
