Hi,

Ive looked but cannot seem to find a drawing that relates to the dimensions, bracketry etc of a radiator for a 4ltr 2001 tj.

the idea is so that i can send it off to have one made whilst still using the jeep as a daily!

Does anyone have one laying around?

Regards

Paul

if i have to get a 2nd rad then thats something i will do but i mistakenly thought that a cad drawing or something must be available.

Never mind plan 2 it is then.

I have one in the shed, came off my 98 as it leaks a bit but is still useable, on a 250 mile road trip there was coolant in the bottle so only a slight leak.  Nissens make one for the 4.0L.

Mine only has a slight leak but is becoming a pain.

Bought a mishimoto one as they claimed it was a direct fit for both LHD and RHD - guess what? Steering knuckle got in the way of bracket.

Jeep want nigh on £900 for one so they can swivle!

A rad company either need the rad to copy or dimensions, even a cardboard template!

Where abouts are you gordy? I assume that its the same spec as a 2001!

I'm in Ipswich, have you tried contacting Nissens?, got mine from them via local rad dealer, paid about 280 I think.

I havnt but I will- silly question but do you just ask for wrangler one?

[gordy]

Yup, ask for 4 litre, right hand drive if your rig is RHD!, had mine in 18 months, no problems at all.

Lol brilliant. Cheers

I got one for my TJ from Viking Radiators in Harrow 02084 276 400, delivered same day
Was around the £200 mark

I got a Nissens 12 months ago from my local car shop for £190.
If you want one made this should be to scale and may help...
Pic's from ebay £192 delivered. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissens-Radiator-for-JEEP-WRANGLER

If you replace your hoses I think the RHD upper hose is discontinued. LHD hose fits and is best with an inch or so trimmed off the rad end.

Thanks very much.

I was reading this post the other day on the iphone and read it as Nissan- thats why i questioned about just walking in and asking for a wrangler one- 'daft prick'

I believe that my garage guys have come up trumps with having borrowing a rad from europarts and are sending it up to get copied so i possibly dont need the drawings- much obliged anyway.
