| Post subject: | Radiator leak/ fitment |
My radiator has a slight leak and i want to replace it. I cant find anything specific for my b200 for less than 250. My local junkyard has a few slant sixes (2 dusters 2 darts 1 valiant) Is it be the same radiator? And/or would it work with minor fitting and adjustments? |

If you are OK with "retrofitting" to a non-OEM radiator for that vehicle, then it is a simple matter of measuring the mounting location's size and taking note of the outlet locations, then finding some other radiator that fits that "footprint". Usually it's the automatic trans vehicles, with an ATF cooler, that presents the biggest challenge. DD |

I don't know if you've already tried them but I've had very good experiences with 1-800-Radiator (radiator.com). Great service, next day delivery and very good prices. I haven't had good luck with their heater cores and the last radiator had the auto transmission cooler and I didn't need it. I guess that's the only way they come. But overall they are a really good radiator supplier that might be worth a call. Also, leaks can be fixed. Have you tried a radiator shop? Danny |

Yeah its lookin to be around 150 for a new rad which i dont mind paying, and its 60-80 to fix the leak so im going to most likely just replace it with new. |
