So I'm leaking coolant from the primary RADIATOR its a common thing from what I understand. I'm thinking about buying the mishimoto. Sounds like it's a royal pain. Any advice? Anything else I should do to the truck while I'm replacing it ?

Sorry to hear about the failure of your stock radiator! Although 6.7L trucks do not see quite as many failures as the previous chassis, the issue still exists.

Let us know if we can answer any questions about our aluminum counterpart!

In addition, if you do pick up our radiator, please let us know what you think once it is installed!

$925 shipped.

Thanks!

If your needing a stock one I have my old one. It's in perfect condition I just installed a mishimoto for my build. Which is a slight pain because I had 2 delivered with damage and the third was finally right. The packaging sucks. Paid 900 shipped. Well 3 shipped and 2 returned lol.

Check out an Aradco unit. It's all aluminum, American made and has a lifetime warranty. Rudy's diesel gave me a good deal on mine.

I put one in a few months back. No issues at all. Mishimoto has a video that goes step by step literally even giving you bolt sizes. It's time consuming but not hard at all. I had my laptop in the garage pressing pause between steps. I've got several thousand miles on mine with no issues. Took about 9 gallons of 50/50 to top it off. Stocker was leaking so I replaced it before it got too bad. It's not as bad as it sounds. Take your time and it's no problem.

Really they should warranty that no matter what... but I get it.
wish they would do warranty work without needing to plug it into the computer to do that dam emissions recall flash.. mine has been dripping for a while now.. added a third of a gallon of coolant back in her so far..

Picking mine up today, costing me $107 for a $1700 job if I didn't have the warranty. This truck is pissing me off with all the leaks but at least they are all covered. Debating on selling for something else at this point.

I was told from the ford dealer here in Jacksonville NC the warranty won't cover it. That's why I bought the mishimoto and plan on installing it my self. How many milies do you have on yours?
