    Hello- I have a 98.5 with a stock radiator. Here and there over the past few days, my radiator will be dripping after my morning commute. I found (and tightened) a fairly loose hose clamp on one of the 3/4”(?) lines near the left motor mount, basically directly underneath the left headlight. I...

    Wrecked my truck a while back and I have all the parts ready to fix everything, besides the intercooler and rad are backordered from mishimoto and they are claiming mid to late March, because of the ships being held up at the ports.

  12. 98.5-02 Powertrain
    I have a 98 24V. A couple/few weeks ago I popped the radiator cap off and turned out the engine was still a little warm (rookie mistake, I don’t wanna hear it.) I started hearing the “sloshing sound” a few days later, mostly when engine was still on its way to warming up, but occasionally when...

    Any easy way to do it? Seems simple on 2nd gens but 3rd gens from my research looks like you have to pull the AC condenser, intercooler, trans cooler, oil cooler and maybe more. Any weird tricks that doctors hate to make it easier?

  17. 98.5-02 Non-Powertrain
    Hello, first time posting and was hoping for some help. I had a coolant flush done at a shop on my '01. I checked the level a few weeks later and it's low, but no signs of any leaks. Also, the supposedly fresh coolant looks dark and cloudy while it's cooling (2nd pic). Once its fully cooled the...

    I've searched the forum. I'm not getting very many actual recommendations or personal reviews on radiators. Well, they don't last forever, so what are your thoughts and experiences with replacing the factory OEM radiator with the plastic tanks? My 2005 3500 SRW 5.9L 4x4 has 245k miles and the...
  19. 03-07 Non-Powertrain
    Today I noticed I had a pretty steady leak of coolant leaking from my radiator on the driver side. Truck has 212xxx miles on it. Factory radiator, I’m hoping it’s just old and needs replaced, and I didn’t lift a head or blow a head gasket. Wasn’t leaking this morning before a 15-20 min drive...
