Thanks. I will look for them. There are drains up higher, also, but couldn’t find those. This will help!

Re: Crusader antifreeze drains
There are also drains on the input and output of the raw water pump and at the bottom of the oil/trans cooler (if you have the "U" shaped one), but those aren't antifreeze...just raw water.

Thanks. I have found the ones on the risers and manifolds, just wanted to completely drain the AF since I am replacing the exchanger and the oil and transmission coolers and all hoses.
