    The one you have listed is what I finally ended up using. Its a direct bolt in, used the same hoses as my original. I have no issues with it at all, keeps everything kool, even when it was over 100 degrees here this summer.

    I also have a couple V-6 radiators in need of new cores.
    Any one on this forum have radiator shop experience in the St Louis area ?
    Any suggestions on what kind or who makes the best replacement cores ?

    Dropped the radiator off at the Colorado Radiator Repair shop recommended by a member of my local 4x4 club. So we'll see how it goes. They had a bunch of large equipment radiators being worked on - shop looked clean and organized. They are going to run a pressure test on it tomorrow - we'll see how that compares to the Grand Junction shop that ran a pressure test last week.

    There are a couple other shops that seem good like Sercks (thanks Doug) and A1 but their location wasn't as convenient. For anyone in the same boat down the line needing repair and not replacement...search options will be much better if you specify OTR/18wheeler and heavy equipment radiator. I'll give an update on my experience and when the jeep is up and running again. Got another project about to start on the jeep as well ...will post that up on my build thread.
