Thank you for the infomation, however I still have some more questions.
Do I have to use Chrysler special coolant or conventional green one?Can I re-use factory hose clamp? Otherwise I will replace with screw tighten type clamp

if you have the green stuff in the car you can use any brand,if you have the orange color coolant then stick with mopar brand.using those clamps over is not such a good idea.use screw type.watch your knuckles!!!!
