I need to get a replacement radiator for a 2003 xl classic, 500 detroit, 12.7. So far the prices I am finding are around $700. Those are the lowest prices around here. Does anybody know of a better place to get one that may have a better price and be a good quality radiator?
$700 is already on the cheap side as it is for a 12.7 Detroit. Is that for a 3 or 4 row radiator? Most NEW decent ones are upward of $1k..... This isn't really something you want to cheap out on anyway....
You want a good radiator for less than $700, good luck finding it......$700 is reasonable, you can expect to pay around $1,000 for a GOOD radiator. Good luck with your search and let me know if you find one cheaper!
There's good and there's cheap: pick one. Also: you never get more than you pay for (for anything), you may get less; never more.
Ok. That was the info I needed. So many times I get a part and other guys here what it cost and say "Oh man you paid too much for that." the $700 dollar one I found is all metal core and 4 tubes. Sounds like that is what I am going to have to go with.
That's a good price. I bought a new one for 1200. Peterbilt 3406b cat. Then I had to rebuild one for the 359 Pete and that cost me just as much and I had to build it myself.
That's about the best price you'll find I pay $1100 for mine in a columbia 60 series, didn't really have an option break down at the truckstop and need to get rolling I didn't want to but it but I had to
