Aftermarket replacement Radiator, where?

After probably 1 gallon worth of JB Weld patch over the years, I think it may be time for a new radiator. Where can i get a new replacement cheap?

I got a new one for my truck from here about a year ago, and have been very happy with it.

I got mine from advance adapters. I haven't put it in yet, but it looks pretty beefy compared to the stock unit.... A bit $$$ though.

So how hard is it to change the radiator on a 3.4? I'm thinking about doing mine to prevent the tranny/coolant explosion problems

Check these guys out. I put one in my 22RE over six years ago and still holds water. No drain cock, but no biggy. As I recall, they were pretty inexpensive. My budget was much tighter back then.

Try Pick-n-Pull yards at San Jose North, San Jose South, and/or Moss Landing. Should be something like $30 (if they got one...).

I bought one for each of my trucks from Performance Radiator on Ebay and they were both delivered later that day. Over a year later they are working great.
