Starts leaking right away, stay away

I installed this on my 98 TJ Wrangler. Installation was easy, 10 screws and a couple of clips to take everything off. Then problems arose. Reinstalling the fan shroud was difficult because the fasteners did not match. The thread that you screw the fan shroud into to connect it to the heatsink started spinning on the bracket and slipped out. Finally, a few minutes after plugging in and warming up the car, the radiator started leaking somewhere below. The hose has no breaks and in the photos you can see that it starts to drip from the top. Had to drain all new coolant and distilled water (spent a good $40, I wonder who's going to reimburse me?). When the valve is opened, it also erupts onto other parts of the jeep, allowing coolant to go everywhere. I do not recommend. Save yourself the headache.

Pros
  • ◆ Improves cooling by 35% to 45% Temperature
Cons
  • Some minor things
