Champion sells one with an electric fan. Going to order that one.

Have had a champion one for 3 years and has worked great.

2 Row $169.98
3 Row $219.98
4 Row $279.98

If I am running a stock 2F only daily driving, no major offroading or extra add on equipment, will a 2 Row Rad be sufficient?

As long as you never off road it or drive in the summer it should be fine. Slow idling in traffic would likely see it over heat.

Think of it as dispaching with only one of your pacs working for passenger cooling; it may do the job, but only if everything else is spot-on. No room for error.

I bought a Champion alum. radiator on eBay (they are all over eBay) for about $150 delivered and it has worked flawlessly for almost 2 years. I recall having to trim a small piece off the bottom of the shroud, but otherwise it fits fine.

Will an aluminum radiator work with a turbo diesel engine? Cant find the Champion on ebay right now.

I'm running a champion in mine as well for the past 2 years, no issues since and never gotten hot while wheeling. Think I paid $200 or so with the electric fan (which I didn't use)

lot of the jeep guys up here run the summit aluminum radiatiors and make/fab a mounting setup, this is the one I have in my fj40

here is a writeup on how to mount it..

all depends on how much your chassis flexes on how you mount it.

also depending on where you are a good fan/shroud is needed.

Is this radiator sold on Amazon the same one as that carried by the various Cruiser places (SOR, CCOT, etc)?
