I personally don't subscribe to the notion that everything on eBay is rubbish.
I bought my ally 3 core rad there in 2015 for $245 when I converted to TD42T. It's well made, well tigged and everything fitted exactly. My TB45 shroud fitted perfectly.
I've done nearly 30k kms with it, have absolutely no overheating issues (only has 150kw pump) and I've never added a drop of coolant.
It's done some bumpy beach work and I've towed a 2.7t caravan to Lorella Springs over some good corrugations. The same corrugations that ruptured my original heater core.
My eBay 100 amp alternator with vacuum pump and my eBay heavy duty starter motor ( had to buy 12v to replace 24v items) are also both working faultlessly after 6 years.
