My radiator started leaking and the repair shop told me it"s in bad enough shape I should look for a used one it will cost to much to fix the one off the tractor. The dealership told me the OEM number is 361937R91. I can"t find one anywhere the closest thing I could find is OEM number 361704R93 does anyone know if it will fit and work in my tractor?

Be leery of any diagnosis or statement of condition from a radiator shop. Most of them want to sell you new replacements. The old radiators are far and away superior in construction and materials to the crap mfgd today.

For the most part, any person walking through the front door of a radiator shop carrying an automotive radiator is considered a sucker, not a valued customer who deserves good service.

You should look for a radiator guy who wants to work on old radiators. You might start with Hemmings Motor News. I think they are on-line now.

In general, I agree with Wardner.
But, there is a guy in Dowagiac, Michigan that gets sent boxes of rusty metal from all over and he does his magic and makes a radiator out of it.
Nash's Radiators. 269-782-2016. He's not open weekends.
Don't know your location but if you are close it would be worth having him look at it.

Thanks guys I am in central WI and from what I've heard the place I took the radiator to: Glen-Ray Radiators in Wausau WI is a pretty reputable place. He just told me it was going to cost me between $400 and $500 to fix so I may want to look for a used one if I could find one but I have had no luck finding one. I am afraid if I do find one it may be a problem also. Guess I will just have them fix the one I have.
