    Thanks. I'm sure it's not for everyone, but since the OEM was $420 and this one was $600, I decided that extra was worth it to me.

    wow, $420 seems really expensive for a radiator to me? It's not VX specific, its the same as the trooper right?
    mine was only $200 in MOAB, where i thought for sure i would be marked up 50%. Granted, it is a toyota vs. isuzu, but I've always thought that generic stuff on the vx was pretty cheap.

    That's Merlin's price.....actually just looked again, it's $445.
    The generic ones are as low as $70 on ebay.
