why do the radiators suck

My 08 f450 work truck with 60k on it just started leaking again from the radiator. This will be the fourth radiator this truck has gone threw. Every 08 truck in our fleet has had to have there's changed! Is there a better fix for these?

Lol went back to the yard to get another 6.4 and after ten miles it list ask boost and check engine light came on. Now in a 6.7 but was a yard truck so anyone can drive it and they destroyed the inside of the beautiful truck. Its a shame! But this truck drives so smooth!

Have all the tsb's performed and then you will have better luck. Something is causing it to get shocked and then they fail.
