Radiator Oil Cooler Outlets ?

Thanks for reading. I bought a new radiator online seeing it had the oil cooler outlets far apart. As far as I can see all the ones I have found for sale are set this way. These are all advertised to suite my A33.

However when pulling mine out, the outlets are set together on the right hand side.

I can't seem to find any advertised like this. The car is a Maxima 2000 A33 Ti

Any comments / feedback / help appreciated.

Just replace the lines and cut them to fit the new radiator. It wouldn't hurt to replace the old lines any way.

Are you talking the outlets in the bottom tank of the radiator? If so, these are for the auto trans oil, not the engine oil. The engine oil does not go through the radiator.

Thanks for the replies.

Yes I was hoping it would make sense to just run a longer hose. I'll give that a shot.

thanks
