Post subject:  How to find a radiator leak
I noticed some antifreeze dripping from the front sway bar. I check the radiator and it appears to be leaking from the top by the hose closest to the radiator. Is there a way I can check for a leak? I know its leaking, I just want to find out where and see if it is a simple fix or if I need to replace the rad. It has the intercooler rad on the front of the "main" rad.

Just get ready and replace it, there is no "easy " fix. Just a replacement, buddy tried a couple of different things to prolong swapping his but nothing worked short of full replacement

Sorry

Hmm...yeah, I was thinking that too. Jeep has 124K on her, so I guess its time.

Is it best to buy an OEM from the stealership or.....???

I have been reading reviews about how the "replacements" out there fail pretty fast. In fact, I read where TJKJ said he had 4-5 of the cheaper ones fail before finally getting an OEM...

Yes, go with OEM. it will cost more initially, but will save you money in the long haul.
