spair radiator?

I found a Mishimoto radiator for sale for $500. Still in the box and never used. Should I pick this up for my 2011. I am not having any issues with the one in the truck, but it has 135,000 miles on it.

I would absolutely pick up the radiator. These radiators will go bad sooner or later. I've only had my truck for a few thousand miles and already had to put a radiator in it. I'm sitting at 75k miles now and know I'll be putting another one in it sooner or later.

If you have the money and patience, yes, buy it and store it.

Even if you don't need it you could easily sell it to somebody here that needs a radiator and is out of warranty. I'd buy it if I needed it.

There have been some on this board that have had the Mishimoto leak too. However, it was covered by warranty other then the labor. I would see if the warranty would transfer as I believe it is lifetime but they may want proof of purchase.

That's a good point. Might not have a warrantee if I buy it used. I am leaning on waiting till there is s problem before I get one
