Great video, very helpful. Needed 10mm, 12mm, & 13mm. Helped to have an impact driver and a breaker bar and a garage full of whatever else might pop up. I understand why you swapped hose clamps. They were a pain!!
@@dillansgarage I understand why you'd dislike the spring clamps, but they do allow for expansion and contraction as the hoses and flanges heat and cool. Screw-type hose clamps don't and can dig into the hose, weakening the hose over time.
@@PervertedThang I understand that. I guess after 5 years on these hoses the ones I put screw clamps on are still good. So that’s good enough me already and it easier to work with. There’s a trade off for everything. Nothing wrong with the spring clamps, and they’re better in some ways. I just don’t like working with them.
From watching these videos, i would suggest you didnt remove the engine block drain plug for coolant- there is another 4 litres of old acidic coolant you left in the engine block and given you replaced the entire radiator youd be better off also replacing the coolant left trapped in the engine due to you not removing engine block drain plugs
I’m fixing a 2013 tacoma that had front end damage. Trying to figure out where it sits, cause when I install the new one it seems it’s to close to the frame. Also, the new rad that came is for an automatic and I have a manual, it won’t make a diff I guess
