Will this radiator bolt directly to my Forester without new brackets?

Yes. This unit mounts at factory points—no drilling, no custom fabrication. Bolt it where the old one was.

Do I need to flush the cooling system before installing this?

Flush the system before installation to remove old coolant and debris. This protects your new radiator from sediment buildup and ensures proper heat transfer from day one.

What if the radiator arrives damaged or fails shortly after install?
