Save your Radiator from Impact Damage

Anyone who's driven a truck long enough has had the unfortunate experience of the "Fender Bender".  In the fall we see a lot of minor collision damage done from deer.  Sometimes this minor collision damage can be a major cost due to radiator and cooling pack damage.  This is not only expensive to repair, it involves a great deal of unnecessary downtime.  Volvo has come up with a minor vehicle modification that can significantly reduce damage to the radiator and cooling system. 

The Front Under Reinforcement is a Genuine Volvo part that helps to minimize front impact damage to your radiator and cooling fan. It installs between the bumper and the cooling package to help deflect items from impacting the lower portion of the radiator. It requires less than 30 minutes to install and can be done without removing the bumper or the hood; all you need is an air wrench and a small jack for the front end.

Cost of the parts are $171.99 for post 2003 model year trucks and $247.22 for pre 2003 model VN trucks.  The price of this kit is a bargain compared to the price of a radiator assembly and more importantly the downtime that goes along with it.  To order this Front End Radiator Reinforcement .  If you're not sure which kit your truck needs, call us at 866-464-0183 with the serial number of your truck and tell our parts professionals you need a Deer Guard for your Volvo Truck.

Seeing is believing, and that is why Volvo has put together this video showing a collision without the reinforcement, and then a collision with reinforcement.  You can order this kit from www.Class8TruckParts.com Deer Guard
