I have a 1996 SJ80 1.3L Suzuki Sierra and the top tank has cracked and the core is fragile in the radiator. I have been looking everywhere for a new radiator but no one seems to sell them. Any suggestions?

Find a brass radiator from an older sierra. Will last forever and easy to repair.

An SJ 70 radiator fits :wink: Minus one bolt I think. I used the radiator supports from both sides of my coily radiator and bolted them to the leafy one. Works well.

just fitted a coily radiator yesterday to my leafy... you need to use the leafy brackets on the radiator as well as the support brackets. the radiators seem like theyre about an inch wider, i had to muscle it in place to do up the last bolt :crazy:

so reverse, i would think you need to use the coily brackets on the radiator.
