It can be tough to know when to have your Ford F-350 Super Duty radiator serviced if you don't know what it does, but it's still extremely important.

You guessed it – your engine overheats, and it may even break down completely.
Keeping up with regular radiator maintenance in your 2004 Ford F-350 Super Duty is a huge factor in the longevity of your engine. In fact, Ford recommends replacing coolant/antifreeze at specific intervals, but it’s also wise to keep an eye out for signs of a failing radiator.
