Replacing Radiator info needed.

[rfenio]

I need to replace the Radiator on my 1998 100 series and was curious about the time required and hoping to elicit any advice or tips on doing this job. I assume a OEM radiator is best but am not certain.
Thanks,
Ray

There is a how to on this site somewhere. Changing the radiator was one of the easiest things that I've done to my TLC. Less than an hour if I remember right

Did mine a few years ago and per @Mike6158 it was easy. And yes...OEM is highly recommended...contact Onur aka @beno for best service and more than fair pricing. Let me repeat: Contact beno for best service and more than fair pricing. The first radiator, when beno was between "jobs", came from a MUD vendor and looked like it had been dropped by UPS from 30,000'. No bueno. Shortly after Onur got my order for the 2nd OEM radiator only this time, per Onur going the extra mile all the time for us, he repacked the radiator and it arrived in perfect shape.

Sometimes you get what you pay for

Thanks for the tips. I was planning on ordering from Cdan who I've used before. This 98 has 230K on it
and it finally failed. I've 3 coil packs fail in the last 3 weeks also.
