Radiator crapped out.

Also.. Why are people so worried about posting a VIN # online?

I'm just doing it to irritate you.

no idea. i don't know enough about what someone can do with a VIN number so I err on the side of caution. Just a force of habit from blurring out license plate numbers and firearm serial numbers.

With "T" as the eighth digit, he has a gas engine, like me. I looked at both radiators at RA and matched the RPO codes from his rig to the gas engine options and not one of the RPO codes matches his RPO code pic. If I look close enough, I just did, it lists the exact same RPO codes for gas or flex fuel.

IMO, I would go with the one that fits mine, and likely yours, because of yours being the same rig as mine.

Posting the last 8 digits of the VIN: 5R208540....hopefully @915_Tahoe will chime in. He is the genius with this stuff.

DL3--powerfold mirrors too.

Hey @PNW VietVet he has the infamous GU6--3.42's!

I liked the 3.73 gear in my 02 and was fun to drive. Since I have been doing all the upgrade work on my rig, I replaced the coils and now all 8 injectors and a new throttle body and new fuel pump. Just the coils and pump have given me just a slight better accel from stop feeling and I expect the throttle body and injectors will too. Plus, my mpg is better and need that with the current gas prices. "I sure could go for a mean tweet and $1.76 a gallon gas, right now". I have a hat that says this on the front.

ABS - airbag sensor?

Not sure what DS is.

Do you mean something like this? https://www.ebay.com/itm/383876821422?hash=item5960d771ae:g:-BsAAOSwp19f51w0

He meant "drivers side" (DS) and I think is confusing the ABS with SRS.
and ya the impact sensor/s under the bumper frame, like you linked above are the most common problem, you should have a associated code but getting that code requires a scanner that can read SRS. the cheapy low end scanners usually do not have that capability.
if it is a front sensor just be aware the left & right side are the same part number and the code may only say "front impact sensor" so if you replace one side and the code does not go away then swap it to the other side. next most common is the passenger seat sensor or a broken wire.

Stupid auto correct made it abs instead of srs. Iirc, my scanner(innova) stated which side was bad.
@partcheck if you ever come down to Keansburg, I'm 1 mile away from the boardwalk. I could throw my scanner on for you.
@PNW VietVet I thought you had wanted 3.42's when you were originally looking, instead of 3.73's.

Untill I got the new rig with the 3.42 gears, I thought I wanted to stick with the 3.73 gears but after getting the 3.42's and driving after the upgrades, I can live with the 3.42's and will decide if I ever get to the point of new gears being needed.

Love my 3.73's. My GN has 3.42's--actually all turbo Regals came with them.
