I checked them here in Virginia at our local Advance and found the Ready-Rad 4 core copper/brass for 261.79. I called a friend of mine who ownes a radiator shop in Richmond and he said that it was a good radiator. He sells the same thing and couldn't beat that price. It comes with the trans cooler btw.

The part number is a 433369 and you take 15% off with code DCPR at checkout if you order it online.

I bought a four core from Checker in 1999. Two years ago when it started to leak they replaced it for free on the lifetime warranty. If you plan on keeping your truck for a while it's something to think about.

Mine was good quality. Specre Brand made in Canada. They make good gas tanks as well. No complaints here other than the wider top and bottom braces on radiator that might require mods to stock rad shroud. Mine was aluminum so I just drilled new holes and mounted it. Auto Zone price about $200.

Advance Auto Parts has a 3 row copper brass with metal tanks for $203 with a 15% off coupon code right now. The Autozone unit that I looked up for the $180 was plastic tanks and aluminum core.

I just bought this radiator yesterday from OReillys. Part # 433369. It's a murray brand. Metal tanks, 4 core, pretty sure it has an aluminum core. Looks to be excellent quality and even has the nipple for heater hose. $179
OReillys site shows them to have plastic tanks but this one is metal.

The 3 core is actually higher priced than the 4 core at about $220. Not sure what's up with that.
