Perfect fit. Decent quality. Was a he'll of a lot easier to install then getting the thermostat to seat properly writhing the housing. If you got all your tools out and neatly lined up with plenty of extra coolant on hand. It's a 30 minute job. If you got bare bones for tools, all rusted bolts, stripped out hose clamps, and not much knowledge of fixing cars and a phone to search YouTube with its a 2-3 hour job. :-)

Back in 2015 my 04 Xterra’s OEM Radiator started leaking. Called the dealer just to see what they would say the replacement price was. $800 + labor, insane… Picked this up on Amazon for less than $70. Took me about 3 hours to get it installed. Piece of cake, went right in, no problems. 5 years later, and 1,000’s of miles down the road, and it’s still going strong! Worth Every Penny!

Works perfectly on my 2001 Nissan Frontier 2.4 liter, 4 cylinder, with 5 speed manual transmission. It has extra pipes at the bottom for the auto transmission cooling lines which I didn't have to mess with since I have a manual.The only issue was having to drill wider the holes that hold the fan shroud. Since the holes are oval shaped, I just came at them at a hard angle with the drill. Just be careful not to overdo it and drill too much.

Item arrived and was nicely protected. Just remember to handle with gloves and vacuum off all of the tiny Styrofoam. You will need the rubber grommets from the top (2qty) and bottom (2qty) from your old radiator or buy new. Use the provided rubber caps to cover the ends of the transmission lines once you remove the old lines. That will stop some leakage while you remove everything and install the new radiator. I had new hoses and clamps but I reused the transmission lines and clamps after cleaning with some solvent (mineral spirits). The shroud was a tight fit getting back on (into the bottom notches). I filled with 50/50 distilled water. I bought 2 gallons of antifreeze and 2 gallons of distilled water at Wal-Mart. Thus, for a little over $100 I replaced the radiator. I was quoted $475 for the project. It took my about 4 hours total as the shroud was my biggest pain to get off and get back on. The radiator has worked great for three days so far. No more smell of radiator fluid. I also ordered a new radiator cap and refill reservoir to go with the hoses, thermostat and hose clamps. Check your transmission fluid level when you are done. I drove the vehicle for five miles and then checked the radiator fluid. I have a safety radiator cap so I could open it. Make sure it is safe to open when you have driven it. I had to add more antifreeze solution. All in all I am very happy I did this and I bought this radiator from Amazon!

I am happy that the all the fittings were in exactly the same position as the original for my 2001 Nissan Frontier Desert Runner. There are two transmission lines on the bottom that were a little hard no remove, but not that bad ( I plugged them while swapping radiators with old AAA batteries! ). Re-install was easier. Tip: One thing that took me a while to figure out is that there is a removable piece of the fan shroud at the bottom ( the bottom 25% of the fan shroud ) that greatly facilitates replacing radiator. There are tabs that can be pushed out at the edges of the removable piece. Remove it before you do anything else and the whole job is less than 30 minutes.My motor seems to be running smoother and quieter. The old radiator that cracked on the top cap, must have had poorer flow than I realized. It came in box with a decent quantity of hard Styrofoam to protect it during shipping. I'm very happy with the purchase.
