Mine has sprung a leak and needs to be recored, but the cost of recoring seems real high. $480 for parts plus a 28% sircharge on the core from the manfacturer. This does not include any labor. Seems like if I could find a new replacement I might be ahead of the game.
Any ideas??
Thanks

I don't know if I am too late on your radiator question...I bought the one from JC's. It is not the quality of the original, but it cools nicely.
Another option is a Walker from Yogi's in Iowa. Nice folks to work with.

I guess that's inflation for you. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 151 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 151 | I kow you can get a 4 core aluminum rad for about 410.00 plus shipping from a shop AL if your interested.
