Radiator If vehicle comes in for transmission fluid leaking from trans\-oil cooler fittings on the radiator, please perform the following before replacing the radiator/cooler:\~ 1. Remove both of the transmission lines from the cooler?s top/bottom flared fittings on the radiator. \~ 2. Remove hex nut and the top flared fitting on the radiator tank.\~ 3. Using a wire brush and gasket remover, clean off the old sealant on the smaller threaded portion of the flared fitting. Do the same for the threads on the trans oil cooler.\~ 4. Apply a new application of Mopar PN 04318032 to the flared fitting, leaving the first threads free for ease of engagement.\~ 5. Install the top flared fitting by hand, then torque the fitting to 235 \+/\- 15 Lb\-In.\~ 6. Install the hex nut and torque to 100 \+/\- 10 Lb\-In.\~ 7. Repeat steps 2\-6 for bottom flared fitting.\~ 8. Reinstall transmission line per normal installation procedures and ensure correct fluid level.\~
