Check Cooling System Grommets
1.
Make sure the lower cooling module mounts are properly seated in the pockets of the cradle.
2.
If the vehicle is equipped with A/C, check the radiator air upper seal and wiring harness along the forward side of the tie bar for correct
positioning. If the wiring harness is not positioned properly, remove the upper radiator brackets and perform the following steps:
a.
Position the lamp wiring harness forward of the radiator air upper seal.
b.
Position the radiator air upper seal back into the cooling module slots
3.
Check the upper cooling module grommets (located in upper radiator brackets) for binding, for misalignment, and for freedom of movement. The
cooling module retaining pins must be centered in the grommets for support by the upper radiator bracket(s), and the cooling module should move
from left to right, forward and rearward freely a minimum of 3.18 mm (1/8 in.). If the grommets are pinched, loosen the upper radiator bracket(s)
and reposition them. Make sure the locator tang in each upper radiator bracket is properly positioned in the upper tie bar slot.
4.
Tighten the upper radiator bracket(s) fasteners. Check the cooling module for freedom of movement.
Torque: 10 N-m (89 in-lbs)
IMPORTANT:
The cooling module must move freely both left and right as well as forward and rearward a minimum of 3.18 mm (1/8 in.).
