My radiator is done. What is the best replacement? Thanks.

Thanks so much!!!

"Bush mechanic". That's exactly what we call them, there is even a local calypso song here about "bush mechanics". :D After watching the video, I am confident that it will not be a major problem. Anything special I need to know about flushing the radiator and or cleaning the intercooler.

Will I need an isolator rated at 500 amp continuous? Thanks.

I want to mount an on/off switch for my Warn 9000 winch. I think it draws up to 498 amps. Any ideas on good switches? Thanks.

I have a canvas soft top on Pumkin, sand color. Just wondering if I am supposed to be treating this with any kind of oil or whatever. lots of sun and rain here. Thanks

Was leaving the island of Spanish Wells to go to the main land Eleuthera Bahamas, about a 10 minute ride depending on the wind.:)
