Description
The factory upper radiator support on 2011–2016 6.7L Powerstroke trucks is built from lightweight material that can twist under heavy load, especially when towing or off-roading. This constant movement stresses critical cooling components like the radiator, intercooler, and silicone hoses.
SPELAB’s reinforced steel Upper Support Bar replaces the weak OEM crossmember with a precision-welded tubular steel structure, engineered to reduce front-end flex and maintain perfect alignment of your cooling system. The result? A tougher, more reliable setup that keeps your Powerstroke performing at its best — mile after mile.
Pair this upgrade with SPELAB’s Radiator Hose Kit, Coolant Filtration System, or Intercooler Piping Kit for a complete front-end reinforcement package.

• Ideal for Towing & Performance Builds: Whether you’re hauling heavy loads, running high-boost tunes, or tackling rough terrain, this upgrade keeps your cooling system secure and reliable.
