Radiator
Need a radiator for a 2006 H3. Any suggestions? Are the ones at Advance Auto any good. Need one soon and don't want to wait on shipping.
|
I put in a Silla in March and am pretty happy with it. I added an external transmission cooler also. Got both off of Amazon. Pretty easy install.
|
I'm sure the Advance Auto will work, but I'd try to find one that was a little larger, with less plastic, and heavy duty. And I'd install a transmission oil cooler with it.
|
When something breaks, i fix it..... right the first time, so I do not have to mess with it later. I went with the CSF Racing all aluminum H3 replacement radiator.
Had to modify my PCMofNC Efan to make it happen, but it cools like crazy and it won't get a crack or have any plastic tank cap/base separate from the aluminum cooling fin tank. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.hum...ed2bb43e72.jpg |
Thanks for the replys. I opted for a Spectra Premium CU2855 from Amazon. About $145 and 2 day free shipping if you have a Prime account. Fit just like original except it seems to have a bit more clearance between radiator and frame where most of the cracks come from. I do like the looks of that all aluminum one.

Yes, this is the exact one I was talking about, I just couldn't remember.

So far loving my csf. Still working on shroud for efan
|
im driving with no shroud for abt a yr. see no diff. just gotta be careful to not get my nails trimmed!!
left off after water pump job. im thinking safety is main reason for it. |
I installed a cheap Silva radiator at the 60k mark and now im over 108k.. money well spent, its never failed and I tow 3000lbs a few times a month also. Anything is better than OEM apparently, goodluck!
