NEED RADIATOR YM 240D

Bugyman · Oct 26, 2006

I left a message with W-Kentucky tractor salvage but figured i'd try here also. I took my radiator to be roded out but they said it "needs a new core" ($200+) so here i am. Any one got one, or know somewhare else to look? I'm in kansas city KS.

Get the new core. You be glad you did in the log run. The new core is like a new radiator.

Have rad. shop repair yours

At $200+, what should i expect to pay for new or good used?

I found (aftermarket?) rad for $285 at Tractor parts inc. Lot of $$$ but I would expect much better than mine hacked together by this guy at shop. Maybe he can fixit up just fine, I've just never used him before and dont like what ive seen of his work, so far.

just ny opinion but, it you have yours fixed atleast you'll know what you have . If you buy the used one , you might have to get it rebuilt also Unless ,you can have it checked b-4 buying.I would b careful as of this after market comes from china & I wouldn't expect it would be as good as the oem

Have you priced the OEM? $410.43 is the last price I have and that is over a year old. We have had no problems with the aftermarket radiator so far, nor do we expect any. We routinely replace problem radiators with new...we simply do not recore anymore. The pricing is too close.

That's the same, ($285), + shipping as Hoye gets for a new one, (probably aftermarket). Radiator shops don't usually stay in business very long by hacking stuff together.

There are several aftermarket radiators available for your YM2000, we have sold and replaced radiators that were built in Turkey and China with no problems. The radiator that is built in China looks a lot better than the one from Turkey and that is the one we have in stock. There are other aftermarket radiators built for the YM2000, but I have had no dealings with them.

If I were going to buy after market.I would buy the ones that danny, wayne or hoye sells since they have used these brands & have had no problems. I was speaking of the after market ones that no one has experences with.
