Part #: MMRAD-RAM-03

The Mishimoto Performance Aluminum Radiator is a high-quality cooling upgrade designed specifically for Dodge Ram trucks equipped with 5.9L and 6.7L Cummins diesel engines from 2003 to 2009. This radiator replaces the factory unit to provide superior cooling efficiency, ensuring your engine maintains optimal temperatures even under heavy towing, hauling, or extreme heat conditions. Built to withstand the demands of diesel powertrains, it helps prevent overheating and extends engine life, making it an essential upgrade for Ram owners who rely on their trucks for tough jobs and daily driving alike.

Factory radiators often fall short when managing the heat generated by high torque diesel engines, which can lead to performance issues and premature wear. Mishimoto’s radiator addresses these challenges with advanced engineering and premium materials, delivering reliable cooling performance that keeps your Cummins engine running strong.

Construction & Design

This radiator is constructed entirely from premium aluminum, chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity and resistance to corrosion. The two-row core is fully brazed, creating a leak-proof and robust structure capable of handling the stresses of heavy-duty use. TIG welding on the end tanks further enhances durability, preventing cracks and leaks that can occur under high pressure and temperature fluctuations common in diesel applications.

Compared to traditional copper-brass radiators, this aluminum design reduces overall weight, contributing to improved vehicle performance and fuel efficiency. The radiator’s construction ensures efficient heat transfer, keeping your engine cooler and more reliable during demanding driving conditions.
