Radiator Replacement Advice Needed
 

Hello everyone, new guy here.

I have a 1985 K 10 that is currently off the road and I am in need of a replacement radiator. The truck will not be on the road in the near future but I need to be able to start and move it while I am working on it. I really did not want to go cheap but at this point I have no choice. I was leaning towards this JC Whitney model for under $100 shipped.

I'm not expecting high quality by any means, but I am worried that it's absolute junk. Does anyone have any experience with this particular radiator?. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Well, I ordered the radiator and will have it shortly. I have a couple other projects happening so this job may be a couple weeks out yet. I will report back with pictures when I get into it. I thought I would post a pic of my rig taken this morning as well. :metal:

Got the chance to put this in today. Pretty straight forward swap. I was actually pretty impressed with the quality, so far. Radiator and thermostat shipped was under $100.

For reference this is the one I bought.

Not very exciting I know, but I didn't want to leave an open thread.
