Are these 2 radiator manufacturers the same? THe reason I'm asking is.. I specifically ordered a 3 core Modine and the sent me a 3 core Transpro.. and before I get on the phone with them I at least want to know what I'm talking about.. I measured the Transpro and it's almost .25-.5 inches wider where the brackets go..


Thanks

See what I said here. Pay the extra money and get the Modine. The Companies may have merged but that extra width where the brackets go (Transpro) translates into big adventures in creative installation

Just tell them you lawyer will be in touch with them for false advertising or breach of contract or some mumbo jumbo.

Talked to JC Whitney today.. they sent me a RMA and free fed ex return.. and I ordered another Modine from NAPA today for $240ish with tax and shipping... what a friggen headache.. But hopefully I'll have a drop in replacement this time!

Stay tuned red eyed sports fans!
