Hi guys
Anybody tried the Denso radiator ?
Will it have the same cooling capacity?

I heard a lot of stories about the spectra’s and something about cooling issues ,I’m not sure that I want to go with all the eBay Chinese stuff, and considering the denso,also
I noticed that some radiators for the 2006 model come with a top fill neck (radiator cap), while others don’t. What’s the reason for this difference? The cap neck is not only for 07?
Thanks

I had a 1AAuto Radiator on my 05 Liberty that lasted about 4 years before I had to replace it (started to leak). This time I bought a denso from RockAuto. No issues so far and it's been about a month. Denso makes a lot of OEM stuff so you can't go wrong with them.

Not sure about your second question though, I would just buy whatever your Jeep comes with. May be a change between model years or something.

Some Liberty models had changes for the next year model installed when manufactured. Had a 2007 that needed a specific windshield glass because the gap in the edge paint to expose the VIN # was in 2 different locations, depending on when in 2006 / 2007 car was made. So, some 2006 models may have had 2007 style cooling parts installed, like radiator. towards end of 2006 run. Get style radiator that is in your KJ for best results.

I bought an Autoshack rad from Amazon in April 2023 and it's been fine.
