Thanks!! I will look into it and hopefully be able to solve my issues soon! I have another long haul in two weeks so cant wait very long as well.

 

Just got a leak on my 4th radiator, a Vista Pro. Gonna have it warrantied because it only lasted 6 months. Tried to order a Mishimoto, but they are out of stock everywhere. Will eventually get one, but the Vista Pro was a disappointment if anyone is considering it.

 

i would go with the Mishimoto all aluminum fully welded replacement.. no more failures. they are priced good around 800.00. I will be putting one in my truck soon and dont think I will ever have to replace it again. just my .02

 

Just picked up my radiator and my radiator shop stopped carrying vista pro because of too many failures. more .02

 

My original radiator lasted until 64k replacement lasted 24k at 89,000 I traded it in for a new 13 F 150 ecoboost.

 

Hi Tire Fryer, I had my hopes set on replacing my defective radiator with a Mishimoto brand but just as you have determined, the lead time is too long to wait for. I was in a crunch and chose to have my local dealership replace mind. Luckily, all of the hoses had been replaced a year ago (by the last owner who was the original owner). From all indications, records, etc. that radiator was factory. It survived 137k miles! Post repairs; I don't drive the vehicle as much as I had intended (when I purchased it due in part to my latest work regimen). However, I hope to get many miles of service out of that factory rad. I'm very hopeful that someone will respond/reply back to this thread with feedback on the Mishimoto rad for the same year 2008 or close to it. I personally like the idea of having a solid core and no plastic parts.
Best wishes and please keep us all posted on your success with this repair.
Regards,

 

Mishimoto has stated they will have back in stock mid-november and shouldnt have any more back order issues.

 

We just received our latest shipment of 6.4L radiators at our warehouse! Back-orders will be filled in the order in which they were received, and will be shipping out tomorrow!

Hurry up and place your orders if you haven't already done so, as these will be flying off the shelves!
