Just did this job today for my parents 2017 Latitude, dealership wanted $1500! Bought the radiator for $97 bucks on Rockauto and used this video. Can't thank you enough sir!!!
How long did it take you to replace? I'm being quoted about the same and I can't afford this!
@user-tf9sc5do6x my bad didn't see your question until now. Maybe 5 hours or so. Was having a few beers while doing it so not sure. Not hard at all tho doing it this method
@@joshuabarr6511 No worries. Yeah my two friends that are more mechanic than I am did it this weekend and we were successful! Thanks!
Video is 2 years old and still helping people. Thank you for the knowledge.
Thank you for making this video. This is the most comprehensive one on the entire CZcams. Dealer quoted me 1800, I watched your video for a couple times and replaced it myself in three days.
Why do they have to make this so difficult 10/10 will never want to do this again lol
Thank you! I'm glad it was a able to help you out and save!
Thank you so much man! Took me an hour and a half or so for the removal and install. Then a little more for the coolant fill with your video.. what a life saver and $$$$$ also.
Thank you Sir. for making this video. This is the most best comprehensive one on the entire CZcams. i had a hard time putting it back together, your video has help me big time.😀😀😀
I’m doing my 2015 jeep Cherokee sport this weekend the radiator has a bad leak so I need to replace it this video really helped thanks man 👍🏽
I'm in the auto body biz 30 years....good video. Not the end of the world to pull bumper and rebar so you don't have to cram all that in....
This was so helpful, just did my 2015 TH with 6 cyl. Had the tab in the garage and going through it the same way.
Hey bro your video was great. It substantially saved me a lot of time And money not using a mechanic. I originally brought it to a mechanic who said he couldn’t do it because he could not evac R134yf and blah blah. So I figured that was nonsense and completed the job myself. And clearly the condenser and refrigerant does not have to be removed.
And guys, If this video saved you time and money, send your thanks with a few $$$.
Thank you. I really appreciate your support 🙏 made my day
Very helpful video. Thanks!
He said "wiggle it back and forth" and I say, that's what she said. Lol 😂
Great video
Just finished replacing the rad.
Very helpful and I did not remove the bumper and it worked fine
A little tight though.
Just used this video to replace the fan set on my Trailhawk 2015.. The desert sand here in Abu Dhabi got into the fan gears making them stuck. This job is a bit painful, but it can be done yourself. Thank you for this video.
Thanks so much for doing this. As if it's not difficult enough without worrying about the camera at the same time. I had some trouble getting the bolts out of the cross member for the under engine cover panel. I used a 3/8 impact and none of them broke but they were slow coming out so I was concerned. Never Seize going on them when I put them back in, good anytime you have a steel bolt going into aluminum (galvanic reaction and all that).
This video was a big help. Thank you. 👊
Great video. Very helpful!
1. Thank you for this video it gave me assurance it’s something I could do myself and was real helpful.
2. I did this on our 2015 3.2L and it is indeed a pain in the a**. I did have to drop the front bumper because the plastic pieces on each side are different than what are on this 2014. Bumper goes back on pretty easily.
3. I broke one of the bottom feet bracket things, luckily a dealer nearby had it. But beware.
I appreciate this. Needed this tutorial to help get my alternator out today. I need to get the fans out to just reach the alternator. I hate working on my jeep.
Glad this helped out
very helpful,, thanks
Great video I had my my 2017 jeep Cherokee Latitude radiator replaced under warranty with only 9K miles on the car there was a manufacturing problem with the radiator, 5 years later with 60k miles on the car I had to replace it again this time I did the work myself and as I was doing the job I had seen how sloppy a job the dealer had don ( broken parts and loos screws)
Exactly why I’m doing it myself. Dealer work that I’ve looked at for this ‘14 Trailhawk is just a mess. Missing screws, unsecured retaining clips, etc.
You need to change your smoke alarm battery 🤣 good job on the video!
Replacing the Electric Radiator Fan on 2014 Trailhawk, 3.2. Minor differences in the Trailhawk. Wow, what a pain to just replace the Electric Fan. Why, Why, Why design this way!!! But, your video is some reassurance to what I am right now in middle of. I am stuck trying to work the fan off, Looks like I need to remove the bottom bolts like you did for replacing the whole radiator.
I think it's engineered to discourage most people from doing the work themselves so that they're forced, Jeep hopes, to go to the dealer. I'll never own another one. Wanna buy a '14 Cherokee Trailhawk? I'll cut a helluva deal!
UPDATE.. for anyone with a 2016 2.4l if you do not want to remove ac lines what I did on the passenger side of radiator where it slides off ac line I cut the corners off of the embedded plastic so much easier
Thanks for the vid. I waited to remove the lower rad hose until after I pulled the fans. Easier to reach that way.
Me too lol.
I was hoping you would take off the bumper so I could see 😂 but great video thank you 👍🏽
Good video!
Great detailed video. I’m looking forward to doing it myself just by watching. Thanks
Thanks
Great video man I'm actually doing this on a 2016 latitude and wanted too see before starting if anyone did it without removing the front end lol .. i hate when they make it so tedious to do even the slightest thing in an engine bay . Like leave some room lol when i looked at this jeep i was hoping it wasnt the water pump due to.where its located on these pos
thanks man. can you do serpentine belt and transmission fluid on the cherokee next?
Thanks, good video. When I’m putting the new radiator in, the compressor doesn’t match up exactly with the bolts on the radiator, seems like one of the compressor fittings is hitting the bottom bracket of the new radiator preventing everything to line up. I’m thinking of cutting away a little bit of the bracket. Have you ever seen this before?
thanks bro. helped a bunch
What kind of light is on your head? It looks nice.
What is the function of the dielectric grease applied in the o-ring? There is a second o-ring in the upper radiator, do you recommend lubricating that one too?
My car has been leaking form the o-ring in the top of the radiator, I’ve replaced the o-ring (without applying lubricant) but it hasn’t stopped the leak.
Great video!!
Hey Jabo!! Can You help me? Thanks!!
I always use silicone grease, or Vaseline on any rubber seals. It'll prevent leaks and prevent damaging the seal during the install.
What kind of antifreeze did u use to fill it up
What tools did you use it doesn’t look like you used a lot of tools
How was the coolant inserted ? Maybe I missed it ? I was skipping to how you install the coolant some pour some use a refill air tool
I used a air tool
If you don’t have a air tool
@@JaboTheMechanic can you have the option of pouring coolant in as well?
Is there anyway to add coolant without an air tool or anything special ?
@@edjohnson9989 Yes, just pour it into the reservoir. It's where he was showing the bubbles form. You can do a quick google search on how to add coolant. Hope that helps :)
Can you do the actual video step by step bleeding process bc that’s not even close
Nice. How many gallons of antifreeze to fill up?
2-3 gallons
Is it 50/50
I have to replace my rad
Me too and don't have the $1600 they want so gonna have to see if I can do myself : (
I did the alternator in my jeep It was a nightmare
21:21 "fiat"
Man that's a little rough mechanic work. Not sure if I'd hire you to work on my car?
Haha, you must not see too many mechanics, this guy is great compared to what I've seen!! Just watched a vid where the guy is throwing the parts on the floor, etc.
My mechanic is saying this is a 900$ job, what do you guys think
That's expensive
@@JaboTheMechanic what do you think a more realistic price for you would be ?
@@bradleyaudelo924 mine charged me $450 including radiator.
Late answer
My local dealer wants $1250 plus tax. Thank you @Jabo The Mechanic I think I'll do it myself!
About 600$ including chinneeze radiator.
