Holy Crap! That looks like a lot of work to change a radiator!
How is the Mishi?
Did you have to modify anything to get it to work? IE, the inter cooler pipe's?

Looks nice. Too bad you have to cover that work of art up with the 1000 other radiators in these trucks. Can't wait for them to release something for the 6.7s.

I know eh! It's a real nice piece, dont see much of it now.

No mods to anything, its a direct fit/replacement.
The bottom shroud (top piece and a bottom piece) has a bolt on each side to the rad, I didnt know and tried hauling the OEM rad out and was thinking wtf....they are a **** to get at.
I watched the install video, wrote down the steps on a sheet of paper and went to town. So I wouldnt forget anything as I was at work while doing this, lol.

Actually it doesn't look that bad to install over my 03 if I changed radiators. Nice job.

Depending on dealer I guess, but a new rad (oem) from dealer here is more then the price of the Mishimoto. ($795 I paid for the M)

Pretty hard decision then if you need to replace one that is failing.... Keep us posted on how it performs.
