Upgrade, 1-3/8" Radiator locally for most folks...

Iron Indian · 05-22-2008, 11:32 PM

I couldn't get it at Advanced here. They only sell the 5/8" and 1" and there the same price as OReillys.

Also keep in mind, OReillys offers a Lifetime warranty with theres which is worth the extra money IMO. I'm keeping my car and I like knowing I can get a replacement part down the street from me. I donno how many people care about this, but I do. Lifetime parts FTW.

Also PRJ warned me awhile back, people were ordering radiators listed as 1-3/8" from Rock Auto (i think) and they ended up getting the 1" rad instead. Be sure and double check whatever you order. After hearing of these problems I decided to find a source locally so I can physically see and measure it before buying it and having to dick with shipping and a middle man. I hate ordering stuff and getting the wrong stuff, it really pisses me off.

Hope whatever you guys do works for you.

I totally understand where you are coming from. I was simply posting the information for those of us who are not blessed with O'Reilly's.
