That link looks like an OEM replacement.. should work just fine. I'd look into their "Lifetime Warranty"... make sure what exactly is covered incase of failure..

No you dont have to just use autozone... many different brands are available

I use RadiatorBarn radiators. They're "stock-ish," in that they're made of steel and they're the same dimensions of the OE radiator. The fundamental difference between the two, however, is that RadiatorBarn radiators are all metal; no plastic end tanks to fatigue and crack.

I last ordered from them a while ago, but if I remember correctly, their shipping rates were reasonable and my order arrived within a day or two.

Radiators, automotive radiators, condenser, oem radiators, truck radiators

thanks correct me if im wrong since i drive a 5 speed i dont need a radiator with a transmission cooler correct?

Many OE replacement radiators will be for the auto. (with integral oil cooler) This is normal for the aftermarket, allowing them to save money by not having to produce two versions of one radiator for every vehicle.

Just keep the transmission connections plugged, and don't use them.
