Radiator

[elmora805]

I posted about a month ago about a coolant leak i have on my 2000 Tahoe Limited. found a crack in the plastic tank on the radiator. just wanted some opinions on an all aluminum radiator I found on ebay. Im trying to save some cash cause im not going to pay $775 for an oem radiator from the dealer. Thanks in advance for the advice.

Here is the url:

Same thing went on mine. Got a new radiator from radiatorbarn.com with a lifetime warranty for $150. Install was easy as pie.

Ditto, $150. The tanks are plastic, but for $150 (I'll believe the lifetime when my radiator melts and I call them back) you can buy 5 of these for one OEM.

Difference is the cheapos have fewer (larger) channels through the radiator. But for regular driving should be fine.
