radiator

So my TJ ( 98 manual 4.0) does absolutely perfect in town and sitting at a stop. 200-205F, but the second I start going over 65 it gets up to 215-220. I’m thinking it may be a radiator issue and the radiator does look kinda cooked as far as rust or mud or whatever in it lol. I’m thinking...

My radiator gave up on me in this summer heat, any recommendations for a replacement?

Apparently this is a grill but I thought that's what the front of a radiator is. It looks like it's been painted over in the past too. These pictures are with my radiator taken out. I'm guessing it's supposed to be extra protection. Is it necessary though? The problem is it takes up space and...

Hello everybody. I recently blew the radiator in my 05 TJ RME. I’ve on foot for two weeks and need to get myself back on road ASAP as this is impacting my income. I’m curious of anyone knows of any other vehicle that used or radiator part number? There are not any “Wrangler Yards” in Oklahoma...

Hi guys. Looking for recos: aluminum radiator - '06 TJ 2.4L The heat in South Florida has finally cooked and cracked the 18-year-old OEM — surprised it lasted this long. Thoughts? Experience with particular brands? Likes/dislikes/preferences? Thx! ~ Peter

I had the heater core replaced by my shop and ever since then I have had radiator cracks and leaks. The existing radiator cracked in their shop during the repair. They repaired it and gave it back to me with no leaks. Two weeks later that new radiator cracked. They put another new radiator in...

Hey everyone, Here’s another TJ forum post about overheating at idle bear with me here. I’ve done research on what could be causing an overheating issue at idle and can’t quite narrow down what the issue is. Some Context: My Jeep when driving in stop-go traffic will slowly creep up in...

My 04 TJ’s radiator has a leak at the bottom. I hear MOPAR is the best but I haven’t been able to find one. What aftermarket brands are people using and recommended?

Price - $50 + shipping Details: OEM radiator for a manual from a 2005. Worked fine when removed at 113,xxx miles due to a manual to auto transmission swap. Make sure and check your specs to see if it will work with your rig. No radiator cap. Radiator is dry.

I did it!!! I found my coolant leak!! Very exciting as a novice mechanic 😄 This radiator hose was very pregnant. So I’ll replace it tomorrow. But I still have questions. The leak was pretty slow. Lost 1psi about every 1-2 min and it slowed to a stop around 15 psi. She’s not leaking while...

The stock (maybe stock?) radiator on my LJ has gone kaput, and it's time for a new one. Before any of you suggest a Mopar radiator, it is far more than I am willing to pay right now. Please note that it is $400 on RockAuto! My LJ is my daily, so please keep usability in mind. Thanks in advance!

Asking $350 shipped OBO. This is a new radiator, never been installed. Bought for my 2006 TJ but didn't realize that my transmission lines don't have the quick connects anymore.

Got the TJ in late summer ‘21 and flushed and changed out entire cooling system except fan clutch. Pretty much all Mopar parts and G05 coolant mix. It was running hot when I got it. Since then, it has pretty much run 195-200 anytime I am on the road and might get to 205-210 when doing traffic or...

Looking for a cheap radiator….doesn’t have to be new, but I don’t need rusty junk..that’s what I’m replacing!!! 😀

Does anyone know if there is supposed to be a hose here? Or if it is a drain of some sort? We have some freezing wether currently in Louisiana and I noted some antifreeze dripping from this opening. I don't remember if there was a hose here or not but it looks like one may have been. Or if it is...

I've commented in a thread or two about my 1999 4.0 M/T needing a cooling system overhaul. This isn't one of those "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" situations. My sh*t is really broke. I believe I've read just about every post in every thread about cooling systems and haven't run across this...

Hi all! Firstly sorry if im breaking any forum rules and any technical incompetence. I recently bought a year 2000 Wrangler, 4.0L straight 6. I’ve recently had a new radiator fitted but interestingly the mechanic never added a coolant reservoir. I only noticed because once when I stopped there...

My TJ has had every single component replaced in the cooling system within the last two years. Highest vein count Mopar radiator, Mopar water pump, stant superstar 195° thermostat (per Jerry's advice), new copper heater core, new hoses, new fan clutch (twice because the first one was lazy). I...

Hi everyone. As a follow-up to my previous post, I finally found the source of my coolant leak when it suddenly opened up like a faucet today. It appears the bottom plastic seam is separating, so obviously the radiator has to be replaced. My question is: do I replace only the radiator, or...

Hi guys, I own a 04 Tj auto trans with a leaking radiator. I’m planning on putting an aftermarket one because mopar is very expensive. I saw a denso radiator for $86 on rock auto. Denso is a well reputed brand but the price makes me wonder would it be any good? Any advice would be highly...
