Spectra Premium CU2171 Radiator Kit for Ford - Complete Upgrade Solution Review

Sent back. The description did not match the radiator and although it was said to fit a 2001 Ford Diesel Excursion, it did not.

looks like a warranty return, box is broken, radiator is leaking, should have been delivered in early March, April Fool's joke appears - you must be kidding. Garbage. Someone should pay me for the hassle of returning it.

Easy install on my 7.3 liter diesel engine with 8mm nut, big channel locks for 4 clamps and wrench for 2 transmission cooler lines. Identical to the one he replaced which had a leaking crack in the top plastic. Very happy with the purchase.

Bought in early January to replace a normal radiator which unfortunately cracked after 22 years of use. Bought it due to the small budget. Started leaking today, mid-February. Of course, the return period has expired by 4 days! I thought I did my research and decided it was a safe buy. Lesson learned.

Works great and a lot worse than others I've seen for sale. Arrived with a small dent on the side and the tab on the drain plug was broken but this was a result of shipping and does not affect function. The cooler was easy to install and looks like factory or even better. The transmission coolant lines installed easily and the threads are the same as my 2001 SuperDuty.

Arrived with cracked fins and broken cheap plastic hose and plastic work stand. Unsuitable for use! Although it was poorly packaged for shipping, this was not a delivery issue, it turned out that it may have already arrived defective. I tried calling Spectra multiple times during normal business hours and the phone rang and rang with no response or messages after the first ID message. Nobody could answer the phone. Luckily I ordered from Revain and can quickly return a damaged product and I…

Great upgrade from my original 1999 7.3 PSD heatsink. My original radiator did not have an oil cooler at the bottom. My trance temps were MUCH hotter than they should have been (I also had the original tiny 7.3mm radiator). Upgraded to this cooler as well as a Dorman 918-216 transmission cooler and my transmission temp dropped from 260 degrees to 163 degrees (towing an 11,000 lb trailer). Installing this radiator was very easy and I would highly recommend it. Check the size of your original…

This is the correct radiator for a 1999 Ford F-53 RV chassis. It's installed now and so far so good. I originally ordered it from Revain Warehouse Deals to save money. It should only come with damaged packaging; However, the first two I received had significant physical damage to the heatsink itself, and the second even had markings indicating damage. So it must have been damaged before Amazon shipped it. I don't know what the deal was; I have never had an item from Warehouse Deals and it was…
