A fitting/manifold assembly and method are provided for a heat exchanger. The method includes the steps of providing a manifold (22) including a wall (30) having an aperture (32) therethrough; providing a fitting (24) including a body (42), a nipple (44) extending from the body (42) and having an interior surface (50), and an opening (54) extending through the body (42) to allow access to the interior surface (50); inserting the nipple (44) into the aperture (32) from one side of the wall (30) so that the body (42) of the fitting (24) is on the one side of the wall (30) and a portion (48) of the nipple (44) is on the other side of the wall (30); deforming the interior surface (50) of the nipple (44) with a deforming tool (60,104) inserted through the opening (54) in the body (42) to enlarge the portion (48) to a shape that restricts retraction of the nipple (44) from the aperture (32).
