Using this upper coolant pipe is easy. Just replace the old OEM rubber upper coolant hose with this new aluminum one. Make sure you're using it with OEM RAM dual radiators to avoid fitment issues. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the silicone boots and T - bolt clamps for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any problems, replace them promptly. Remember, this product has an estimated lead time of 40+ business days, so plan your purchase in advance. Also, don't use it on 2010 - 2018 single - radiator trucks or trucks with dual fueler/twin CP3 pump setups.
