84k on the radiator sprung a leak! Looks like it overheating but. yet just starting to stream out in the front.
Looks like it’s time for another part.
What’s your favorite type/brand of radiator replacement for normal everyday use?
Lol, don’t say the ones that don’t leak - heard that one.

I would look at reviews on an aftermarket one. My 15 had a dealer replaced factory radiator at 30k and seems are leaking again....32k

Don't get a mishimoto. They seem to last about 6-12 months tops. Warranty doesn't mean shit when u have to change it yearly. Pita

just go OEM equivalant. Thats what I did after researching it. Been fine over the last 30k. I heard of issues with Mishimoto so wasnt worth the $ to me.

No problems with OEM. Had mine changed out at the dealer at 63,000 miles for other reasons (no leak). So far another 40,000 miles and no problems.

OEM Radiator and Electric Fan are the two best things on a 2012+ JK to get when those two go bye bye...
