Installed a Cold Case aluminum radiator this morning. I got tired of the cheap O'Reilly radiators cracking. A friend of my brother's owns an off road shop (Wheat's Off-road) and he highly recommend this one.
Install notes:
1. The Hayden extreme duty fan clutch (2791) will not work as it will hit the radiator. The stock fan clutch is only about 1/2" away from it.
2. The fan shroud nutserts are M6x1.0. The radiator doesn't come with bolts, so you will need to source them. I chose stainless.
3. The shroud will need new holes drilled a out 1/4" higher than the OEM holes. This will allow the shroud to sit where it should and not get hit by the fan.
4. The radiator has to come out to remove the fan in the future.
After driving it after the swap, it does run cooler. This week I'll see what it does when I get the soft top back up with the AC.
