okay... I think I saw a coolant leak on the passenger bottom corner of the radiator yesterday. I had a quarter size spot on the driveway and saw it on the frame rail. I am keeping an eye on it...but a big "told you so" comes to mind.

What shape are your motor mounts in?
The reason I ask is that I've cracked three radiators at the plastic header tanks in the last year. I finally figured out that it was from the engine rocking and loading the rad hoses too much (which then cracked the plastic hose spigot away from the header tank). I've since changed my ways and installed urethane mounts and an all aluminum rad (Griffin).
