I have a 99/2000 model Jeep Wrangler, i have found a small crack on top of radiator under sticker

Question

mechanics have already said i need a new radiator, are the any more options?

if not does anyone know a way to get cheap radiators in AUS that arent authentic perhaps?

Answer 1

I have also had good luck with JB weld.  Do they sell that in AUS?  I have also soldered cracks using a propane torch and the same solder that you use on household copper pipes.  You need to get the crack really clean and down to bare metal before you do it.   I would not recommend the stop leak because I have seen that stuff do damage plugging stuff up.

Answer 2

check wreckers and trading post

Answer 3

you can try in buy some jb weld from autozone for 6 dollars and just let it glue the whole together or buy an radiator stop leak if its not too big. most radiaotrs shouldnt run but like 80 to 180 dollars try the junk yard for one. Good Luck !
