Assembly
The radiator support assembly is made from 2
mild steel hydroformed tube which is welded
1
to the front structure. The Radiator Support
Assembly is serviced as a complete assembly. 2
The bolt-on portion of the upper tie bar (1) as
well as the left and the right fascia support
brackets (2) are a part of the radiator
assembly. If the damage is limited to these
parts, they can be ordered and replaced

support assembly requires removal of the
upper fender rails. Upper fender rail service
extensions (3) are included with the radiator
support assembly for efficient installation. If
the damage permits, locate and cut off the
front portion of the upper rails along the die
mark indicators and install the replacement
upper fender rail service extensions. This
procedure must be performed on both sides
of the vehicle. Left side only is shown.
