S10 (1982-2004) Radiator Built for Automatic Transmissions

Optimized for SSeries automatic models, this aluminum radiator pairs 100% TIG welded tanks and core with an advanced fin layout to deliver fast heat rejection and lasting durability under highway and towing loads. Precision fit for 1982 to 2004 Chevy S-10 trucks, its made in the USA construction ensures reliable performance, corrosion resistance, and improved resale value.

1982-2004 Chevy S-10 Radiator for Automatic Transmission

Swapping a modern LS powerplant into a 1982-2004 Chevy S-10 often runs into cooling capacity challenges and fitment tight spots, and the 1982-2004 S-10 Truck Radiator (Auto Trans) is built to solve both. Its premium aluminum housing and precision wound core maintain stable temperatures even under sustained load while offering direct compatibility with 4L60E and 4L80E automatic transmissions. Installation into standard SSeries trucks requires no chassis modifications, simplifying the retrofit process. Durable construction resists corrosion and supports both spirited street use and towing duties on rough terrain.

High Grade Aluminum Tanks and Core Construction

The radiator features 100% TIG welded high-grade aluminum tanks and core that deliver exceptional structural integrity. TIG welding produces uniform, precise joints that resist cracking under thermal stress and vibration, ensuring a leak free seal even in demanding driving scenarios. Aluminum's inherent corrosion resistance and light weight further contribute to durability without adding excessive bulk under the hood. This combination of fabrication technique and material choice supports consistent performance over years of service.

Superior Heat Rejection Through Precision Core Design

The precision wound core maximizes coolant flow while expanding surface area for rapid heat transfer, allowing this radiator to maintain optimal engine temperature under sustained load. With its large fin count and carefully calculated tube spacing, the core excels at shedding heat during heavy towing or spirited street use. Superior thermal efficiency reduces the risk of overheating, contributing to consistent power delivery and prolonged engine life. The welded joints between core and tanks eliminate weak points, guaranteeing reliable operation in varied climates.

Tailored Finish Options for Durability and Style

Customers can choose between a polished bare aluminum surface or a durable black epoxy coating, each offering distinct advantages. The uncoated finish provides a classic metallic sheen that reflects heat away from the core, while the black epoxy layer adds robust protection against environmental contaminants and moisture. Both options resist corrosion over time, ensuring the radiator maintains its appearance and performance on long road trips or offroad excursions. The choice of finish allows integration with diverse engine bay themes without sacrificing functionality.

Effortless Fitment with Automatic Transmission Integration

Designed specifically for 1982 to 2004 S Series trucks, this radiator aligns perfectly with the factory mounting points and cooling lines, eliminating the need for chassis modifications. It offers direct compatibility with both 4L60E and 4L80E transmissions, ensuring a smooth transition for LS engine conversions. The standard inlet and outlet locations mirror the original design, simplifying hose connections and reducing installation time. By preserving OEM fitment characteristics, this unit streamlines upgrades and minimizes downtime for DIY installers and professional shops alike.

Backed by precision engineering this radiator delivers consistent cooling performance. For the same radiator but with fans see our 1982-2004 S-10 Truck Radiator with Fans (Automatic Transmission).
