Nice video bro! I’m an electrician and you helped me pull this off flawlessly! I depend on guys like you quite a bit; lots of videos are close but lacking; This one was thorough
Thank you very much for making this video. This was the one that I used as a reference to replace the radiator in my truck. You did a great job

Wow , awesome video Jeremy. I am pretty mechanically inclined , so your video was straight forward and easy to follow. A bit jerky with the camera , but totally understood , working with one hand. Much credit to you. 6 stars
All the negative comments notwithstanding, thanks for taking the time to make the video. I wasn't sure how the transmission cooler lines disconnected, and now I do. Good information.
I liked your video buddy. I don’t see why other people are complaining. It taught me everything I need to know. Thanks and now I’m confident doing it myself.
Faq the haters, if they were so damn smart they wouldn't be trolling for a fix! Opinions are like ....... Hey man, you said you've done this job before right? Are the factory oil cooler lines connected in the same fashion as the trans, with those "E" clips??? Just blew my rad, roadside, heading home now to get tools, and waiting for my Napa to open, getting my RU-vid masters degree while I wait. Thanks tremendously for the fine details you provide, ya, pulling that splash pan out of the way is definitely gonna be a access provider! Thanks man
What about the transmission lines, should you have to add transmission fluid, and won't there be air in the trans lines now? How would you get the air out
I let the coolant flow thru the system without turning my truck on while it’s on and filling to the line so that I am not guesstimating my coolant levels prior to turning on with cap off like he did.
Well then you might want to double check the level...when the water pump is running it will push air OUT of system, dropping your fluid level, and when thermostat opens it will also fill any air gaps...you have to monitor coolant level for the entire day. You’re doing it completely wrong.
Question, we have a 2010 GMC Sierra extended cab with Topper and the hose for the radiator has a small holes and the fluid is leaking. How hard to fix? They are trying to charge me 200 dollars.
This is a good video, but would be a little more helpful if it started from the very beginning of the work you put into the truck. It will be helpful in reinstalling the radiator. 👍
Hey great vid, I've got an 2009 Sierra which sometimes steam comes from the radiator area, coolant levels are good and temp on the dash stays at normal Temp. I've looked everywhere and I can't see a leak, any ideas?
@@Darth---Vader yeah I chalked it up to rain hitting my radiator and evaporatoring creating steam which is the white smoke. I'm gonna change my grill so it's no so wide open and look for a more closed option.
I believe you purchased a different model radiator than your original, which cost more. The other side holes are for the models that have oil cooler lines as well as trans cooler lines.
Hulkmaddd Hernandez this was an aftermarket radiator from the parts store for $130. I am not sure if the OEM part number. There are many aftermarket radiators for this vehicle.
Me too. I am just a shade tree mechanic. I am a pretty bright guy, have enough tools, a quick learner, & have patience. Thanks for posting this video sir.
Consider sticking to mechanics and let someone else teach. It doesn't show anything in detail. Explaining what you did after it's done is useless to the average layman, but thanks for the try.
