Got a leak in my radiator, i put some jb weld on it for the time being but i want to start looking for one ASAP. I was on ebay and i found a brand new one that has been leak tested for 64.00. The company is "prime choice" on ebay.. are they usually this cheap and should i take the chance with ebay? Thanks!

Aftermarket autoparts on eBay is a gamble. You may get lucky you may get taken to the cleaners. Its always a gamble period, I've had some good luck and bad luck.

I agree with Birdman330, it can be a gamble. I am having to do a coolant flush on my system and decided to buy a radiator in the off chance it developed a leak. I got mine from rockauto and I paid around $77 plus shipping for it.

The OEM Mopar rad is the best way to go for quality & reliability.
Many have found that after a year or two, the aftermarket ones can't take the heat, & get the dreaded hairline crack.

For that price I would walk away, err no run like Heck, cheap products are just that .
In the end you spend more in time, antifreeze etc than buying a Mopar one
As my wife tells it " Bure Aghali " Swahili proverb translated " Cheap is expensive"

Wholesalemoparparts.com. Got a genuine MOPAR radiator. Higher than an eBay, cheaper than dealer. The original lasted 13 years, so can't be TOO bad.
