First, let’s keep it simple: the
Chery FX Radiator Middle Support 501005074AADYJ isn’t just a “metal bracket”—it’s your FX’s “radiator’s steady backbone.” Think of it as a strong, custom-fit bridge that holds the radiator securely in the engine bay. It keeps the radiator from shifting around (even over bumpy roads), aligns it perfectly with cooling fans and coolant hoses, and protects the fragile radiator core from damage. Without it, the radiator might rattle, leak, or even crack—ruining your FX’s
cooling system and causing engine overheating.
This support is exclusive to Chery FX models—always confirm with your car’s VIN or owner’s manual! It’s engineered to fit the FX’s engine bay like it was built for it: its shape matches the radiator’s bottom/side edges (no gaps), the mounting holes line up exactly with the FX’s chassis and radiator tabs (no drilling), and it has pre-cut slots for coolant hoses (so they don’t get pinched). Grab a generic support? You’ll run into headaches: it’ll be too weak (bends under the radiator’s weight), misalign the radiator (hoses leak), or scratch the radiator core (causes coolant loss). Total disaster for a part that keeps your cooling system working.
Don’t overlook its role—it does 3 critical things for your FX:
Holds the radiator securely: It bears the radiator’s weight (and the coolant inside it) to keep it fixed in place. No more rattling or shifting, even on rough roads.
Aligns cooling components: It ensures the radiator lines up perfectly with the cooling fan (so air blows directly through the radiator) and coolant hoses (so fluid flows smoothly, no leaks).
Protects the radiator core: The thin, delicate fins on the radiator core break easily—this support acts as a buffer, stopping debris or engine parts from hitting and damaging them.

This 501005074AADYJ support is only for Chery FX models—using the wrong one risks cooling system failure:
This support needs precise alignment to keep the radiator working—pros do it
right:
Secure the radiator: They’ll safely lift the radiator (to avoid damaging the core) and position it over the new support.
Attach the support: They’ll bolt 501005074AADYJ to the chassis, then fasten the radiator to the support—checking alignment with the fan and hoses.
Test for leaks: They’ll add coolant, start the engine, and check for leaks (misalignment causes hose leaks—this step prevents overheating later).
Check for looseness yearly: Tighten any loose bolts (vibration can loosen them—prevents rattling and misalignment).
Inspect for rust: If you see rust on the steel frame, scrub it with a wire brush and touch up with anti-rust paint (stops further damage).
Replace buffer pads if worn: If the rubber pads crack or fall off, replace them (cheap parts)—without them, the radiator will rattle and scratch.

Exclusive to Chery FX (confirm via VIN), this support is the radiator’s “steady protector”: it secures the radiator to prevent shifting (even on rough roads), aligns it with cooling fans/coolant hoses (avoids leaks/poor airflow), and shields the fragile radiator core from damage—stopping engine overheating.
Made of high-strength rust-resistant steel, it has rubber buffer pads (reduces vibration/scratches), precise mounting holes (no drilling), and hose guide slots (prevents pinching). Professional installation is recommended for proper alignment. Maintain by tightening bolts yearly, treating rust, and replacing worn pads. Aftermarket supports bend, lack pads, or misfit—only the original ensures cooling system reliability.
