Default radiator source

Saw this ad for radiators for discos. They are on ebay and have a website Home | Radiators4Less

They have a lifetime warranty and pay for return shipping if needed. (As long as your not hammering trees with them offroading lol) about as cheap as I have seen. I don't need one right now but was going to keep this contact as I'm sure I will at some point or for my other vehicles. Anybody know anything about them?

Depends, what's replacing a radiator if it fails worth you? Not that I have experience with the company or their product, but their website is questionable. Also the fact that the radiator for my 02 D2 is $0.00.

When I clicked on mine for a D2 it says $164. However, I know the saying, you get what you pay for. But usually returns is about impossible so that caught my eye saying you could return it at any point it fails.

Not sure if they actually build them or they are reselling them. I looked at their about page and at first it sounds like their own but them reading further they may just resell them and "know about their products". Says they have been in business for 30 years.

I just did a quick look and I did find their name popping up on other vehicle forums as a source for radiators like jeep forums. Some mentioned its probably coming from china and may be epoxy lined which they said would reduce efficiency but they were guessing and I have no idea how that effects things. That said, I didn't find any bad things in just a quick search through the first page of listings.

I only saw where it said "we" have been in the "industry" for 30 years. I didn't see where radiators4less has been in business for 30 yeats.
