I just had my new one put in on my 08 F450 up in Hallock Mn as I work on the road so could not get to my reg dealership. Truck only had 62, + miles on it The parts guy told me they designed or improved the radiator. Just hope it will last more than 62,+ miles this time!
I have a 08 Job 1. Ford replaced the first 2 under warranty, they claimed the 3rd was as a result of my tuner. Thanks Ford. 1st replaced at 24k miles 2nd at 51k last one is a Vista Pro was replaced at 69k it now has 95k and needs a water pump.
08, not sure of the job # but truck delivered in Feb. of 08. Had the leaking radiator, hoses etc. replaced under warranty at about 52,000 miles in June of 2012. Now truck at 70,000 miles and "knock on wood" no more problems to report.
Vista Pro used to offer a lifetime warranty, now it's 12 months. Mishimoto makes an all aluminum radiator but it's expensive, lifetime warranty though. Touch wood my Vista Pro hasn't leaked. Place I bought it from told me the Vista Pros were the best he sold and to date had not had any issues, went so far as to extend my 12 month warranty to 24 month, yes I have it in writing.
My Mishimoto rad arrived last week. Have 56K+ miles on early '08. Going to do the thermostats and any hoses if needed. Original is leaking on lower driver's side corner.
Just had my radiator, top and bottom hoses along with my degauss bottle replaced a month ago on my 08 job 3 truck. A couple weeks earlier it blew the hose off the heater core dumping most most of my fluid while pulling my fiver. Limped into the campground and towed to the dealer. They replaced the thermostats on that trip.
54K on the truck. Radiator replaced via my Ford ESP. They wouldn't pay for the hoses.
Love the truck, pulls my fiver without any issues.
