A new OEM one costs about 230-260 dollars. Does anyone know if the ones made in China are less expensive? Also are the ones made in China an inferior product,or are not? I only use the tractor sparingly for mowing and on a small garden so i don't work the tractor real hard. If the ones made in China are available and are of an acceptable quality, can anyone give me a website to order one? THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL THE FEEDBACK!!

I think the OEM Tractor Parts radiators are made in Turkey.. Not sure of the quality on them, as I have never seen one..

Don't assume that "OEM" means Made in America.
Much of that stuff for the old tractors is offshore, IH dealer or not.

MY (A) RADIATOR WAS LEAKING SO I TOOK IT TO THE RADIATOR SHOP, AND THEY WANTED 400.00 TO RECORE IT. SO I ORDERED A (MADE IN CHINA) RADIATOR FOR IT FROM THIS WEBSITE. THE RADIATOR SEEMS LIKE PRETTY GOOD QUALITY AND DOES THE JOB, BUT IT DID NOT COME WITH THE SHEET METAL ATTACHMENTS ON IT, I BELIEVE THAT THE (US MADE RADIATORS) HAVE THESE ATTACHMENTS. RADIATOR WORKS GOOD BUT IF I HAD TO DO IT AGAIN ID SPEND THE EXTRA MONEY FOR THE MORE EXPENSIVE ONE.

Do as the posts below say unless your radiator is not repairable. Stay away from Asian radiators, unless that is all you can find. Buy one from someone who will stand behind it such as Carter and Gruenwald.

What is the matter with your old radiator? Can't it be repaired?

i know it is a leak at the top, right behind the filler cap where it attaches to the hose. how tough is it to take off and who could i get to solder it?

While you are having that done, maybe it's a good time to have it "rodded out". They clean the tubes... the most expensive one to have done for me was $60 for a Farmall M..

Any half way decent radiator shop should be able to fix it for under 50.00
You would have to take it off anyway to replace it.
