Last week the radiator gave up, it was a cheap replacement with a aluminum core and composite tanks(maybe spectra) installed by the previous owner. The tanks started leaking, I believe the seals/ gaskets failed.
After a quick search, I found many members that recommended a Champion aluminum radiator, the price was right, so I ordered a 2 row core, #EC369 from Jegs. $179.99... after tax $193.27 shipping was free.
I am happy to report it arrived quickly and packaged well. The fit is good, nice welds, and the tanks were even polished!
It’s been hot the past few days,( at least for Minnesota) in the 90’s, and the truck stays perfectly cool.
