My 2010 GU zd30 needs a new radiator, any suggestions on what type/brand I should be looking for?

Hoping to change it out myself, anything else I should be checking that could have been damaged by a leaking radiator?

Thanks in advance

Many a cheaper version out there mate but have first hand experienced best performance paying the 30% odd extra for OEM Nissan setups. She can be a hot country Australia and reckon it’s one of the simplest ways to go for your stock truck?

Good tip. Is patrolapart.com legit stock? It’s significantly more expensive than other websites...

Looking at this one https://patrolapart.com.au/product/nissan-patrol-gu-y61-zd30-manual-genuine-alloy-radiator

Or this one. Can’t see why it’s so much cheaper

It's cheaper becuase it's not genuine. Go with the genuine one if you can afford it.. just look at evidence, I bet that's the first radiator replacement in 9 years.. patrolapart won't let you down.

There is cheaper alternatives but I wouldn't buy them sight unseen off the internet. Talk to a trusted radiator mob and they should be able to provide you with something to suit. I got one recently but it was adrad or something.. I can't remember, there's a thread on it here somewhere.

The best Rad for the ZD's is the factory jobbie... unless your selling it
