What radiator fits our fan switch?


Recommended Posts

I converted my truck years ago and used a cheap radiator from I think eBay? Idk. I need to replace it and am having a hard time figuring out what radiators have the larger threads for the m22 sized fan switch. I got one from rockauto but the threads are smaller. I don’t want to keep waisting money 😢

I'm running a KoyoRad A1193. Autozone boxes it under their Duralast brand as A1193. It has the bung for the Renix temp switch. KoyoRad is a Japanese company, and it operates its own plants in China and Indonesia. Box says China but it's better quality than average. And getting it through a parts house with thousands of stores, with "limited Lifetime Warranty" is a generally safe bet if it fails.

 

@Eagle_SX4 is right, though. You can still get genuine Mopar HO era switches for the thermostat housing and make a pretty straightforward wiring change. True Mopar versions of the Renix temp switch are nonexistent, though SMP, Wells and others make versions of it for parts house distribution under their own brands. I'm running a Duralast SW594 (Wells part) Renix switch and it closes at 195-200*F.

Appreciate that. I went over to autozone and got one. I made sure I opened the box at the counter to make sure 😆
