Fits good price works great what more could you ask for

It was easy to take the old one out and put the new one in the same way. Complete with accessories... It took maybe two hours to install at home with the minimal necessary tools. 100 percent better than factory original due to cracks, it's not PC but plastic.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Can't remember

will not fit without modification

As a mechanic I will not use OEM style radiators and am always looking for an aluminum upgrade. This one is well made and looks fantastic overall. However, there is a problem where the top of the radiator meets the radiator frame bracket. I had to modify the stock radiator bushings/brackets and grind the aluminum top mounting tab to fit under the frame post. watch video

Direct replacement? Not quite.

This should be a direct replacement for my 2002 GMC Sierra 2500 HD. Not quite. After careful inspection and comparison between the old one and this one, it looks like it will be good. All fittings and attachment points appear to be compatible. So I got the old one out. We'll have to throw a few mounting grommets on a new one and we're good to go. And that's when I discovered the first problem. He had interference with the mainstay from above. The brackets are welded too high up on the radiator.
