Default is it the radiator ??

im getting coolant leaks left on the ground in the front of the truck after i leave in parked. i replaced both hoses off radiator. Im wondering if it could be the radiator i see coolant sitting on the bottom side of the hose of the radiator bracket.

ya prolly ur radiator. before i did my efan switch the original smaller radiator leaked from around the same area. hasnt leaked since i put in the bigger radiator and i didnt replaced any hoses either. might put a flashlight down on it and see if u can see any cracks or coolant trickling out.

Stock radiators leak from the seals around the oil and tranny coolers and from the where the plastic tanks meets the AL radiator core.
