Hey guys, in the last few years it seems as my stock radiator keeps finding seeps for me to fix as this is the third one as of late.
The shops that have done the work have been telling me that the old 40 year old radiator is loosing it's integrity in fighting off problems as that is no surprise.
Well I started out looking for a replacement and yes 99% are made in China and all are aluminum radiator's of unknown names.
So the qestion is for all that have replace the radiator in their FJ40-45 with a aluminum radiator chime in and post what maybe the worst and stay away from and what is the best and why.
I would love to buy a made in the USA radiator but the very few ones I have found are for Chevy engine conversions and cost around $700.
So can you share your experience with me and others please on this subject. Thanks in advance.
