Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Got home last night and as i pulled up water and steam started gushing out of a small hole in my radiator in my 75 Ute.

Have priced up a few today, and $375 is the cheapest i could find, brand new.

Is this the best i'm able to do? Is it worth forking out a bit more for an alloy radiator or should i just stick with a std one?

Should i switch to a thermo while i'm at it or stay with the stock fan?

Should i modify the shroud (and if so... how?) for the body lift i'm going to do soon while it's out?

Anything else i should watch out for or do at the same time?

Has anybody got a free radiator i can have?

$375 seems like a decent price for brand new. jus keep the standard fan it works fine and when u body lift it youll have to cut the bottom of the fan shroud . i took the whole bottom off myne so the problems whatsoever.

i can get them for around 270 to 300 just haggel it down thats wat i do lol

Dont get an alloy one, get a brass soldered one. If you do happen to hit something, they are more forgiving than alloy Brass and Aluminium have the same heat dispersion qualities too, there is bugger all difference.

Spoke to a radiator specialist for hours on the topic, he seemed to know what was going on!

Get a 79 series radiator they are much better

biggest difference is the 79 series are 5 row and the 75 series are 4 row

if you go termo fan get 2 one as a spare. If turboed stay with viscous fan just get one with 10 blades.
