Aluminum Radiator 2000TJ?
 
Need recommendations for a new radiator for my 2KTJ. I would like to upgrade
for a future HP increase. Any practical experiences shared are most welcome.
Thanks

FWIW,

A bigger radiator won't help unless your after some serious increases.
Bigger radiators are better for running in hot climates or where your
moving slowly for extended periods of time under moderate to heavy engine
use. (like rock crawling)

The best reason to go with a all metal rad is to get away from the plastic
side tanks before they leak.

Amen. The gaskets all eventually let go. Lets hear it for weight savings and
