I would like some help on selecting which brand radiator too but for my 04 Dakota 4.7l engine.
I remember a while back I read a post on someone buying one with a dual core rad or something. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
my truck runs cool in town but at 70mph it runs right next to the line before red. Changed water pump with the aluminum propeller. Failsafe thermostat. Flushed rad. Used antifreeze with hoat.

Here you go...

What he said.

Better get that replaced ASAP the 4.7 dosent like being overheated they like to blow head gaskets or worse.


It could be your fan clutch not the rad causing the problem as she runs ok in town.

thanks for your help but my Dodge Dakota is an 04 4.7l
can someone check too make sure it will fit quad cab
.

There is one currently installed in my 03' quad cab and if you click the link, it says... "2000-2004 > Dodge > Dakota > 4.7L V8 > Pickup"

Well Silla used to be a respected name but now I dont know

I just installed a SPECTRA PREMIUM Rad from rockauto.com and it looked to be a good quality part to me very thick and strong.

You gotta look at the specs. Spectra premium is only 1.25", single core. This will explain why I chose the CSF.

Im not sure how thick that model of SPECTRA PREMIUM I grabed was as they dont carry that model anymore it was the last one they had so no details to look at anymore. I guess .25 could help some Im more concerned with how strong the core is I tell you it came just a little bent and asked to return it they said keep it free we dont want it back as it was the last one and refunded my $$. So as it was free I tried to bend it back some so it would work by standing on it and bouncing up down it worked just enough so it worked installed it and no problems.


Nice free and strong no leaks no cooling problems


So Im not sure of its thickness no details available but it sure impressed me.
