It is my favorite of the available factory ones, seems the only problem is you have to do the Hack n Tap instead of a SYE kit which sucks, but living in snow country I love my 4WD Part Time, wouldn't give it up. I have never had an issue with one even wheeling the crap out of my old Jeep with 35's and the 242.

Ok so i finally got warm enough weather to repair her!
I started by taking off my grill. Just need a phillips screw driver. Easy enough!
Took the metal cover across the radiator off, it put up a fight all the bolts rusted up from years of heat and yuck. Got it out of the way and got the cooling clamps on so i didnt lose any antifreeze.
Such wonderful yard ordaments!
Swapping everything over from the old radiator to the other!
