Let me first start by saying hello to all. I am new and this is my first post.

I have recently purchased a 2002 Monte Carlo LS 3400 sfi (millage just slightly over 150) about a month ago. Over the last few days I have noticed I am leaking coolant pretty bad. After giving it a good look over, I am 80%-90% sure that I have a crack somewhere in my radiator. I am looking at replacing it with Radiators | Car Radiator Parts & Accessories | Pep Boys and would like your guys expertise if it will be compatible (says it is, but some reviews say otherwise). Or if you guys had any better ideas. I would greatly appreciate any help and advice.

 

The radiators in these cars tend to leak where the plastic side meets the actual radiator itself. I have got all my radiators from 1800radiator but that might be an Iowa based company I'm not to sure.

 

1800 Radiator is actually here in Dallas, TX on Glenda Street. They have great products & pricing. This week I went there to get a radiator, hoses & t-stat. Radiator with lifetime warranty was $169.00, t-stat and both radiator hoses were $10.00 each. <- not a typo, hoses were only $10.00 each and Oreilly priced them at over $100.00 for both hoses.

 

I got a radiator for my 2003 Monte years ago for about $160ish i believe.
