98 ML320 Radiator Replacement
Hello MB Forum,
I am replacing my radiator on my ML320 due to it springing a leak. The old radiator does not have the power steering fluid hose connections. The replacement that I bought has two connections that are for the power steering fluid. Looking at the radiator R&R, it says:
"Engine 112.942 before VIN end number 043553, when installing a new radiator with integral power steering pump oil cooler,
additional operations are required, if they have not already been carried out:#"
Can I install the radiator without redoing the power steering hoses. If not, is there a guide available for doing the "additional operations".

It would be much easier if you could simply find plugs for the two holes in the new radiator.
