Need help, my radiator has seen better days tanks are cracking. What rad is the best to install on a shoe string budget. I hear about exploder rads and taurus rads and electric fans can anybody tell me more. also my stock p/s pump took a crap.

Re: Radiator
I run the 4.0L radiator out of the 1st Gen explorers ('91-'94). It's a dual 1" core aluminum rad and does real well with the 5.0 reverse rotation waterpump as the inlet/outlets are reversed from the stock EB rad. Nice fit and runs about $40 from any pick and pull. If this will work for your setup and you decide to go this route just make sure it's the DUAL core one. They did come with single core rads too. The one you want is very similar in dimension to the stock EB rad (about 3" thick), the single core is super thin & easy to avoid.Last edited by Fungus232; 02-13-2012, 02:36 PM.sigpicRoad trips on an island get boring after the 1st lap...
