Default Old School Discovery - Radiator Question

I have a question about the installation of the radiator on a 96 Disco. I've called the dealership and they want $1100 for this part so I called around and found there is a Nissen make for $500 that supposedly will fit. Does anyone have any experience with this make? Any suggestions? Will I need to purchase any additional parts?

If you are sure that you need a new one, AB has one that will fit for around $600.

I have no knowledge of a Nissen make. I personally took mine to a radiator shop and had it boiled, rodded and painted for $150. No more over heating for me!

Have a radiator shop check yours out. It may only need a flush or to be rodded. Worst case would be a recore that is still a lot cheaper than a new one (assuming your tanks are in good shape).
