Hi everyone

First of all I'm now a Proud GQ owner

I'm looking for a radiator that will stop my GQ from overheating it is a 4.2 turbo diesel 1989 model running 14psi and i want to upgrade the radiator from the safari one in it now to a large alloy radiator does any one have any suggestions as to what i should get?

Cheers Ben

plenty of threads on the GQ overheating problems and radiators...

There is a good chance there are other issues apart from the radiator.

Yes i Know ill be sorting through these too but i want to make it so it will never happen again when I'm all done.

I just ordered a new viscus fan and thermo stat and i will be looking at the pump and sorting out weather it needs replacing too.

But i wont mind spending an extra grand on a new radiator so i will not have problems with it under real strenuous conditions (eg sand driving)

may as well go hoses and water pump too, flush the block..

There was a bloke on exploroz selling a Alloy radiator for GU while back... hes in MElb if that helped.
