I threw a bottle of (barr's?) alumnaseal in my 4.0 RR about 500mi ago to stop antifreeze drip @ headgasket pass sidefront.
It seems to have worked.
good luck, greg

Most of those are considered to be short term bandaide repairs that will come back to get you when you finally do have to replace the head gaskets. The other problem is that you will be restricting the flow thru your radiator and heater core as that stuff starts blugging up cooant passages.
