    Im currently trying to get my 3b back as close to stock as reasonably possibly. due to the unavailability of remanufactured radiators, what are my best options to use for a radiator? my local rad shop quoted me a REALLY high price to rebuild the one that i have. Just curious bout what you guys are running? thanks

    Not sure about the 3B radiators, but the radiators for 2A and 3A run around $400 for a new replacement one.

    I don't know about re manufactured but new are radially available thru the usual sources, I'm guessing they are imports thru Omix.

    Okay i meant repro not reman. My "usual sources" have been sold out for a couple years yet and have told me that they dont know when or if the -3b radiators will be available again. any other options available, like other radiators that will fit without modification to the jeep itself?

    Try Kaiser Willys @ 888648 4923 they list one for a 3B in their catalog.
    Try Walcks @ 610 852 3110 he will usually know where to get one.

    The CJ2A radiator is close, someone put an F4 134 in my CJ2A using the original radiator and the hose connections appear the same. I don't know about the radiator to body mounting configuration but I'm guessing its close.
