I’ve got the xy rad here now as well as a 2007 Silverado 1500 here. Tonight’s shop night will determine what I decide to use.

The Silverado rad will work with the fans I have now I pretty sure anyways.

The xj rad will not

if you can fit it i would do the chevy rad as im sure its bigger and will be easier to get at most parts stores if you need one when out of town ect

Way less chance of getting soaked with boiling coolant if a hose pops too.

We got the rear axle truss drilled and welded up last night. Can’t upload pics where I’m at now.

I finished off the tcase installed the out put flanges, seals and sensors. I thinking for piece of mind I might notch the frame as the 4wd sensor is really close. I finally fixed the gacked threads on the front shift detent plug that I’ve put off forever
