I've got a leak in my coolant system right now. It's cold out, and it's not leaking bad, so I'm not checking it yet. It could just as easily be a hose as the radiator. So, are there any radiators anyone recomends? I don't really need anything better than stock, but if I can get one for a decent price, I'll take it. I'm going to go ahead and replace all the hoses as soon as it's above freezing out.

ebay sells some cheapo Alum. ones. They work great and I haven't gotten any problems since install 2 years ago.

Assess the damage before buying something new. If its minor, try some radiator sealant.

QUOTE(Supersprynt @ Feb 8, 2006 - 9:59 AM) [snapback]390757[/snapback] Assess the damage before buying something new. If its minor, try some radiator sealant. Well, of course. But I'm not going to haff way fix it. I don't like patches most of the time. They can work on tires. When there's something wrong, it needs fixed. Thanks for the input. Anyone know the price compared to replacement stock? This only has a 20% of happening, but I thought it would be a nice referance for those who may be replacing radiators soon. That, and I like to do my research way ahead of time. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy
