My 99 needs a radiator since it's leaking at the drain plug. I've done a lot of reading & searching over the past week, because I want to find the "right unit" & do this just once ... radiator swap. The consensus appears to be that a Mopar radiator will be best. Last night it occurred to me that the stock rad in my wrecked '92 performed flawlessly for the entire time I owned the Jeep.
What's to stop me from swapping this radiator into the '99? Are they that different? Will it fit? Is it wise to use an older unit instead of a brand new one?
Thoughts and suggestions are welcome, but I'll say up front that I can't afford $300+ for a Mopar radiator right now. So a link to competent replacement is also welcome if it's recommended not to use the old one.
