    Have a 1970 CJ5 with a F134. The radiator is toast. The core is 2 row, 17" tall by 21" wide; almost the same as the V6 radiator but the outlet is on the driver's side.

    I haven't found one anywhere. Does anyone know a source or what can used in it's place? The 2 row radiator for the 232 L6 appears to be close.

    If you search, I think there are also references to a mustang radiator.

    Welcome to the site. There's a lot of good knowledgeable people here. If you're interested go the "Introductions" section and post info and pictures of your Jeep. Most members like pictures. You have one of the "newest" F134's. I had to look it up, looks like the last year the F134 was produced was 1971.

    The search function didn't help much when I went through this, which is why I made a thread about it that Kenb shared. The Champion brand for an old Dodge is the best fit I could find after searching over hundreds of posts and hundreds of individual radiators. I may have missed something, but if I have to do it again I won't hesitate to get a Champion EC1365 for the wider radiator on late F-heads.

    Thanks KenB and Lewissa81. I think I'll try the Dodge. It beats the $900 recore I was offered.
