    Found this dealer https://www.mitsubishipartscentral.c...MtMGwtdjYtZ2Fz


    And this site with two at quite a bit less https://www.completeradiators.com/pa...teZZRadiators/

    At these prices it might be worth it to go in to a rad shop.

    Hi and welcome to mightyram. Is it worth considering using an all alloy radiator from ebay? They are generally cheaper and more efficient than the original radiators. You have the old radiator to use as a guide.

    My radiator for my 91 Ram 4x4 V6 was bad as well when I picked it up. Tried a couple online sites but none of them actually had the radiator I needed. Ended up finding an almost new one in a 250k mile might max V6. Good luck!

    as mentioned, using your oem radiator dimensions, in/outlets size & position... u could find a plastic/aluminum substitute
    Usually a 'little tweaking' to get it to fit/installed.
    I do that with all my swaps.... normally maximizing the size (also must clear AC & intecooler plumbing)
    Not paid over $95 for one yet. Worked fine

    saw a turbo max on starquestclub with a perfect fit plastic/alum radiator from some other oem application
    I asked the source, but didn't remember the thread, to follow up on the reply. So we know they exist


    dunno about copper radiators lesser efficiecy or performance.... but they are considerably heavier & more costly

    I've had grief with 2 of those types of radiators bought from ebay. Wifeys Hung dog Elantra (let me count the ways I loath thee - cores were 1/4" too short compared to original, 3 out of 4 mounting holes didn't line up, overflow port was blocked, 7 of the locking teeth weren't clamped over the tanks...and the bottom tank leaked and all from an ad that claimed "100% direct fit replacement for OEM and pressure tested" Add to that I paid freight to Oz on this POS and it wasn't worth me trying to return it to the supplier) Second one was on my eediot bros V6 Pajero. Guess what? SAME BS. I'd be prepared to buy a generic universal fit type all alloy radiator and mod it to work. Not much chance of it leaking and you start off with a 3 core unit + the prices are pretty good.

    hit or miss... like everything ebay I guess. I've been lucky so far.
    Even down to radiators my current two airconditioned daily drivers
    Truck pictured has seen a diesel swap, then a twin turbo upgrade..... with that radiator

    found some others too

    I ended up installing an aftermarket Montero radiator from the same years. Took it to the mechanic and he had to modify the mounts to install and change the lower hose to a Montero radiator hose. So far working great... well see.

    glad u got it sorted out. Hose barb positioning on the V6 radiator very different than the 4cyl version
    here is V6: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/5B0AA...Ho/s-l1600.jpg

    I measured the space available and will try the later 97ish 4cy montero radiator for my mitsu 4cyl truck. $50 new
    In/Outlet seem like they're in the right position, radiator is a few inches wider x 1 inch thick core. Some tweaking req'd to mount

    Now the car does not heat at all. I'm worried about efficiency. The temperature gauge never passes the second line to the right of the "C" mark... i guess bigger radiator is not always better.

    Your thermostat will be the culprit
