I'm contemplating trying one of the ebay all aluminum radiators since my barely 2 year old radiator is leaking around the top plastic-aluminum joint. I'm looking for any feedback anyone may have to help me determine if it is worth it or just go with the KOYORAD 2 row radiator for the SC Xterra.

I wish there was a reliable vetted all metal radiator for the 1st Gen. Fact is, there just isn't one out there. CSF SC Radiator in mine. It's still the 3 piece design, but CSF is a proven company that I trust.

The more I think about it, I really don't want to replace the radiator again or have it fail on me when I'm far from pavement. KOYORAD is supposedly a reputable company with quality products. I'm thinking this may be the way to go even with plastic ends since I've had other vehicles last decades with similar construction without problems. This is the particular one I'm looking at. https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=11982277&cc
