TRQ Radiator Assembly Aluminum Core Compatible with 91-01 Jeep

In this review the TRQ Radiator Assembly with an aluminum core is evaluated for owners of 1991-2001 Jeep Cherokee and 1991-1992 Comanche who need a direct-fit OE replacement. The bottom line: this radiator is aimed at do-it-yourself mechanics and independent shops that value a sturdy cross flow aluminum core and a vehicle-specific fit. Our review finds it performs well for cooling and is straightforward to install in most cases, though buyers should check fitment carefully and be prepared to address occasional missing assembly hardware.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed as an OE replacement so it installs without major modification on compatible Jeep Cherokee and Comanche models.
• Aluminum Core: The aluminum core improves heat dissipation compared with older cores and helps maintain engine temperatures under load.
• Vehicle Specific Fitment: The listing includes detailed compatibility information so buyers can confirm it fits 4.0L L6 and 2.5L L4 left hand drive models listed.
• Integrated Transmission Oil Cooler: Includes a concentric transmission oil cooler and male fittings, simplifying replacement on vehicles with automatic transmissions.
• Compact Core Dimensions: A cross flow core with 1.25 in thickness, 10.25 in height and 31 in width balances cooling capacity and space for a stock engine bay.
• Multiple Reference Numbers: Matches common aftermarket reference numbers (for crosschecking) which helps shops source the correct part.

Who It's For

This radiator suits Jeep Cherokee owners from 1991 to 2001 and Comanche owners from 1991 to 1992 who need a one-row cross flow replacement with improved aluminum core cooling. It is especially useful for owners performing routine maintenance or replacing a failed radiator without upgrading to a multi-row performance unit.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers with left-hand drive exceptions not listed in the fitment, or anyone requiring a radiator cap, engine oil cooler, or thicker high-performance core; this unit does not include a radiator cap or engine oil cooler and is a single-core thickness design.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Good fit and functionality for compatible Jeep models, often matching or improving OEM cooling performance.
• Aluminum core and cross flow design provide efficient heat dissipation for everyday and towing use.
• Included concentric transmission oil cooler reduces parts mismatch risk for automatic-equipped vehicles.
• Clear aftermarket reference numbers aid in confirming correct replacement choice.

Cons

• Some buyers report mixed experiences with assembly hardware and occasional missing bolts or O-rings, so be prepared to source hardware if needed.
• A few reports of leakage exist, so verify seals and fittings at installation and pressure-test before road use.
