Well this Jeep has treated me very well, and it's almost 9 years old so
I'm not complaining (too badly). I think a new rad is around $200,
which isn't terrible (all things considered) though hopefully it can be
repaired.

Our 88 and 86 still have brass and copper rads. It's nice to be able to
fix them. Is your rad metal?

We have had our 88 for 6 or 7 years now too.

The new one is metal - I'm getting all core plugs replaced, the new
metal radiator, and a front-end alignment for less than $550! This is
because I brought them the Jeep with all the manifolds removed - easy
access, easy price.

I'm happy with that =)
