The crimp on drivers side of radiator seems to be a consistent place for leaks to develop. All three rams I've had started leaking in the same area. One went from a leak to a gusher from putting the repair off for a couple months.

By the time that rad gets here in Canada it would turn into a $400+ rad, its a nice rad but not worth $400

I called Lordco they have new rads for about $200 depending on your discount.
