Your engine works hard. Keeping it cool is key to keeping it alive. That's why we offer a full line of engine cooling parts built specifically for International 4700 and 4900 trucks. Whether you're running a DT466 diesel engine or another heavy-duty setup, we've got the components to help your truck stay efficient and dependable.
International Engine Cooling Parts That Get the Job Done
Overheating can cost you big time. From warped gaskets to damaged sensors, heat is one of the biggest enemies of any semi truck engine. The cooling system keeps your engine running at safe temps, even during long hauls, stop-and-go jobs, or hot weather.
Our inventory includes:
Radiators: For steady heat dissipation.
Charge air coolers: To lower intake temps and protect your turbo.
Radiator tube hoses: To keep coolant moving where it's needed.
Cooling hoses and tubes: For a tight seal and smooth flow.
Gaskets and seals: To keep pressure and fluids in check.
Sensors:To monitor temps and avoid overheating damage.
Each part is selected for long-lasting performance in high-heat, high-stress conditions.
Made to Fit International Semi Trucks
This lineup is built for International 4700 and 4900 models. These trucks are workhorses, reliable, rugged, and made to get the job done. Our parts match that same energy with cooling components that fit right and last longer.
You'll find parts compatible with industry-trusted diesel engines, including DT466, Cummins, and Detroit powerplants. Consider also adding replacement
AC & heating parts for better temperature control in your rig.
Maintain Power. Maximize Efficiency.
A strong cooling system helps:
- Prevent breakdowns caused by overheating.
- Protect your turbo, sensors, and head gaskets.
- Improve fuel efficiency and performance.
- Extend the life of your diesel engine.
If your radiator's clogged, your water pump's weak, or your gaskets are leaking, it's time to replace them. Don't wait for downtime. If you're accessing the radiator coolant components, you'll likely remove the front bumper. Why not replace it with a new
aftermarket semi truck chrome bumper or upgrade your performance with
4700 or 4900 drivetrain parts like a new serpentine belt.

Frequently Asked Questions About International 4700-4900 Engine Parts & Cooling
What years and engine models are compatible with these parts?
Our International 4700-4900 engine parts primarily fit trucks manufactured from 1989 through 2001. Most cooling components are compatible with DT466, DT466E, T444E, and DT530 engines. However, there are variations between pre-1994 and post-1994 models, particularly in radiator mounting points and hose connections. Always verify your specific engine serial number and production year before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
Are aftermarket radiators as reliable as OEM parts?
Quality aftermarket radiators can match or exceed OEM performance when sourced from reputable manufacturers. Look for radiators with aluminum cores and reinforced plastic tanks, as these offer the best balance of cooling efficiency and durability. Most aftermarket options we carry feature the same core thickness and fin density as original equipment. The main differences you'll notice are typically in price and warranty coverage, with aftermarket parts often providing better value.
What tools and skills are needed to replace cooling system components?
Basic cooling system repairs like hose replacement require standard hand tools including socket sets, pliers, and screwdrivers. Radiator replacement is more involved, requiring coolant drainage equipment, possibly a floor jack for support, and 2-3 hours of labor time. Water pump installation typically needs specialized pulley removal tools and proper torque specifications. While experienced DIYers can handle most jobs, components like thermostats located deep in the engine valley may be better left to professionals due to access challenges.
How do I identify which water pump or thermostat housing I need?
Water pumps and thermostat housings vary significantly based on your engine configuration. Check for casting numbers on your existing parts - water pumps will have numbers like 1810696C91 or 1817689C92 stamped on the housing. Thermostat housings differ between front-mount and top-mount styles. The easiest identification method is noting whether your upper radiator hose connects to the front or top of the engine. Electronic engines (DT466E, T444E) typically use different components than mechanical versions.
What are common signs that cooling components need replacement?
Watch for coolant leaks around hose connections, white residue indicating dried coolant, or soft/swollen hoses that feel spongy when squeezed. Radiators showing bent fins, corrosion at the tank seams, or restricted flow during flushing should be replaced. Water pumps typically fail with bearing noise, shaft play, or weep hole leakage. Temperature gauges reading higher than normal, especially under load or in traffic, often indicate thermostat failure or radiator restriction. Address these issues promptly to prevent costly engine damage.
