Seems i'm replacing the rad in my XJ's every 3 years or so. They all keep splitting at the plastic tank.
Where can i get a metal tanked rad?

get a 91 or newer 4.0 model radiator ...that way you dont have to deal with the closed loop junk...just a thought
Slonopotam said:When you order from radiatorbarn online, do you select "radiators" or do you select "CSF racing radiators" ?
When I go to "CSF racing radiators", there is no option for a jeep.
When you select "radiators", it does not say anywhere it is a CSF. How do you know then ?
One more question, what do the following lines in the radiator description mean ?
Transmission Oil Cooler: YES
Engine Oil Cooler: NONE
Thank you,
Andrey

Nope. Mine does not have it - I am sure, parts list shows transmission oil cooler as a separate part.Blaine B. said:All of the Jeep radiators came with it I believe, even if you didn't have an AW4 auto.

I do not remember anything dedicated to oil cooling in the manual transmission. It is suggested that CSF and all other aftermarket radiators have a transmission oil cooler attached or built into it.Blaine B. said:Are you talking about the aux (external) cooler or the cooler built into the trans?

OEM radiators are different for manual and auto transmissions.
