i just lost the rad in my 92, i got the automatic radiator from autozone( works fine with the stick thats what i have) and it was a $122 bolted right in only had to go get a new cap, it keeps the engine cooler than the stock one ever did, atleast since august when i bought the truck.
92' Pick-up, SAS, gears to make her crawl, 37's , bullet proof motor, and alot of time invested. 06 CRF450R one mean roost flinging machine

You can use tap water, but distilled is much better, (no minerals or cantaminants, chlorine, etc.,). Mix it 50/50 for best cooling properties.
More than tread lightly. Leave it like you were never there, nor anyone else. '90 X-cab 4.88's 33 BFG AT's, rr ARB, Headers, Ignition upgrade, cold air induction. '91 X-cab 5.29's 315's BFG MT's, rr ARB, custom bumper and flatbed

how good are the radiator at radiator.com? it's cheap but not sure of the quality. I ordered a radiator from www.radiator.com and I am VERY pleased w/ the results! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> The thing bolts right in and comes w/ a lifetime warranty, provided you flush out your system once a year! Affordable, durable and they'll letcha do a C.O.D. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> I highly recommend their product! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/patriot.gif" alt="" /> -kuso <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />

I'll second that! I got my rad from radiatorbarn.com as well. I upgraded to the "heavy duty" rad, which is the 3 row instead of 2. For $118 and free shipping, I couldn't complain. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
