Keep vids of your Dodge truck coming. I have an '83 D150, slant 6, 4spd that's seen better days...wish it looked as good as yours, but I'm grateful to have it.
@@Celternix Noice, I've got a 92 w250 cummins, fully restored and just have to do some quality of life stuff and a tranny swap. (plus fix where the flashing chewed on my paint, that part sucks)
Nice video Jason! I am definitely looking forward to the next couple of videos on the old dodge! Do you think you would ever consider doing an electric fan upgrade on the dodge? Stay safe and God bless! (Also glad to hear the old girl is safe and won't be going anywhere even tho you're getting another vehicle with a bed haha)
Good to see your fine Dodge! I had an '88 D150 some years ago that looked nearly identical to yours. I've had an '82 D150 with slant 6 and 4 sp. for about 5 years. Cosmetically not so great. I had to replace the radiator two years ago. At the time it seemed that all slant 6 six truck radiators had disappeared. I got lucky and found an old unused aftermarket one from when they were still copper core. I would have gotten the original repaired, but there are no remaining rad shops in my area. I suppose that decades of plastic and aluminum oem radiators did that.
Hey Jason, my 87 Dodgee Ram LE150, engine dies immediately when I put it in gear. Runs good in park or neutral. Any suggestion as to how to fix? Thanks, Perplexed, Steve Spencer Evans, GA
Hey there, I did a search on a forum and a guy with a similar problem had a vacuum leak from the back of the carburetor: www.ramchargercentral.com/threads/engine-dies-when-put-in-gear.298641/
I have a question, I have a 87 W150 with the 360 and I was living in the south and had no issues but drove across country to Utah and my vehicle had zero power pulling those mountain rounds through Colorado and Wyoming. Anyone have this issue? Now it can barely pull hills in utah.
I was in the Colorado Rockies a few years ago, around 8 to 10,000 ft with my 4-wheeler and the carburetor had to be adjusted in light of the lower amounts of oxygen in the air. I'm just wondering if it might be something similar for ur truck. Just a thought...
You can probably also use a metal clip that slides on the radiator tabs. We used to call them J clips that might not be the proper name though. Great video. I also have an 87 but mine is the bare bones stripper model. I will be doing the rear main seal this spring and I'll be following your video. Keep them coming
@Jason Explains Things I'm not too worried bout it I also have the same manual lol. If you care to check it out I have a video om my Channel bout the truck. Yours is definitely cleaner
I tried to buy one from Alloy Works for my 1985 Rancharger......took a whole week to get it, then it was the wrong part! The one I received, I have no idea what it fits. 😡 I now have to send it back for a refund......total inconvenience....they suck. And it's made in China.....BOOOOOO!
Yep,,,Your standing in front of something really kool. 😃🤪😊😎😎 I've an 89 ramcharger with an aluminum Champion radiator in storage. Waiting for a place to work on truk. Need to flush muck out of engine block prior to radiator install. It might not be exact fit either
Currently I need to replace my radiator but also my engine temperature gauge doesn’t work. Do you have a video on this/can make one on how to fix this? 1993 dodge w150 318 here thanks bro love your vibe and videos
I just put in an after market rad on my '87 too but it overheated. Then a friend did the whole motor rebuild for me. Thought it would fix the overheating.. not yet. Maybe the rad in this video would help keep that 318 cooler! Thanks Jasonexplains!
I would love to see just an over all review on the truck during a pov drive your videos have made me obsessed with these square body rams I’m all over Facebook market place 🤣🤣
The hood insulation thing? Thats from LMC truck. There’s an old video from 2020 about how to install it. Makes the engine quieter also while driving around.
You should totally upgrade to led lights like the ones that decent garage did they make huge improvement over stock just absolutely amazing difference.
@@JasonExplainsThings No New Osram Chips 110W 5x7 Inch Led Headlights 7x6 Led Sealed Beam Headlamp they are on amazon they are amazing and decent garage is the greatest.
Hello another very informative video keep up the good work , im hope that your new mode of transport is a newish Dodge Ram that would be cool as we dont see many over in England.
so jason how much better are you temps because it can get over 100 here easily and ive been thinking about this rad because i have a replacement radiator and have seen high temps well since i replaced the temp sensor lol. I dont want to have to spend money on it but hey no such thing as maintenance free
We got all the way up to 115 last year. No hot days since I installed this yet. But so far so good. Functions perfectly and it makes the engine bay look pretty rad.
@@JasonExplainsThings I will have to def think about it money is right given the fact everything has doubled and tripled in price but I'm going down on my clutch after work tomorrow and after that I've got my eyes dead set on my suspension but everything from rock Auto plus shipping is going to be 450 but I plan on getting the bigger springs to raise the front of the truck more but it sucks being an adult I miss high school staying up super late playing video games and driving the old dodge to school next to all the other cool rust in free parking.
Ive got mine arriving today we will see how well it works as going 80 down the road its pretty much overheating i want to go 100 and not see that needle move lol.
Pretty happy with it as my temps are much lower then with the stupid AutoZone rad and I can watch my thermostat open and close at idle when before it would remain open because of the shit cooling. I will definitely recommend it to my friends with these trucks

Love seeing the old dodge. A working classic. #respect. 👊
Yes sir! These trucks won't die if you take care of them.
Hey Mishimoto are you watching?
Nice honest comparison video man. Well done! And the install looked pretty easy to do! Wish all cars were as easy to work on as the Old Dodge 😂
Me too! So wonderfully simple.
After hearing about the spray in bed liner comin I am gonna grow impatient waiting for it to come out lol, also excited for the fog lights!!!
I fully appreciate your vids as instructional, for reference material, and entertainment. Thanks.😊😎

If I’m not mistaken it could be the jetting of your carburetor.

I have 1987 w250. Last year i replaced the original radiator with a two rows all aluminum one from eBay under $200. Definitely worth it.

great video i have a 1990 w150 318 keep the dodge videos coming!
Got a 73 d100 and the videos have been a great help. You gotta do one on a timing chain sometime!
The replacement radiator looks good, 'just really wish it wasnt coming from China... 🙄
Totally understand.
Made in USA.... China products are mostly junk....
How long did it take to get it?
@@genegriffith1141 3-4 weeks for me

Sorry you had bad customer service! Still very happy with mine.
Why not rebuilding original copper one? I made the same "mistake" on my Gen1 Montero and regretted it.
Totally agree. I regret tossing the original.
Id take a free radiator all day everyday 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 if they make more aftermarket stuff THEY SHOULD DEF SEND THE PARTS TO JASON!!!!! 👌👌👍👍💯💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yep,,,Your standing in front of something really kool. 😃🤪😊😎😎

Hard to find stuff like that. LMC truck has some stuff.

I recently purchased a 1987 W150 and would love to see a belt replacement from start to finish!
Great video! I love these old Dodge videos. I wish my 89 D100 was in that good of shape, haha.
Excellent videos here on your channel. Your content helps keep my ‘84 W350 running! Keep up the great work!
I'd like to find an aluminum rad for my 1977 Dodge D100 440 engine auto trans where the lower hose is on the drivers side
Hey, that under the heat shield was sweet! Where can I purchase one of those Jason!?

Hello another very informative video keep up the good work , im hope that your new mode of transport is a newish Dodge Ram that would be cool as we dont see many over in England.
Great video! Just ordered one of these radiators for my 85' Ramcharger. I believe it has the original radiator in it.
Great video Jason, I swear everytime I need to do something on my 93' Ram you end up coming out with a video on what to do.
YAY, you did make a radiator video 😅 thank you! Subbing
Sadly alloyworks didnt ship to canada 😔🙃
Lame!
After a couple years, any leaks or corrosion?
Nope. 👍
How is the new radiator working after 11 months? I need to replace mine I want to know if is worth the savings , thanks.
Works great through the hot summer and hasn't leaked a drop. Very happy.
@@JasonExplainsThings I’m glad to hear that, I might try it . Thanks.
How much do I fill the radiator?
I bought 2 gallons of coolant.
FOG LIGHTS!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
What size fan came with it or what type of fan are you running
Just the stock one.
Cool
Any update for how it's taking these summer months?
Working perfectly. I'm very satisfied.

Is there a link?
Yep, in the description.
My 86 still has clutch fan I don't know if that radiator will fit
Lol I thought you had electric fan nevermind lol
Are you considering doing an EFI on this truck?
Yes! I really want to do the Holly EFI. But it’s a bit cost prohibitive, but I’m very interested.
