I replaced mine at the last minute on the way to Moab. I couldn't get a stock radiator (was under warranty at the time) due to availibility. I had mine the day after I ordered it, and installed at midnight before leaving for Moab!
With all the radiator comments, it seems that maybe there are different versions out there of the metal units? I wonder why all the varied results? I mean I live real close to John, but never had the overheating problem. I may add a real mechanical gauge to see for sure. I'm about to do the same with the oil pressure too.

It used to run under the 210 line consistently and now will overheat to the point where the buzzer comes on to tell you to look at the gauges.
I do know that you can run the stock one without a fan blade for a week and it will only overheat when you get into stop and go freeway traffic. BTDT with Sergey and a gone awry belly-up that pinned the blade against the fan shroud.
