Thanks man! Mishi makes some pretty good stuff! I have the same truck for my work vehicle. Unfortunately I have neglected it for some time now. Just did all new brakes rotors, pads, calipers as well as spark plugs & wires! Going to do Rad tomorrow along with a fresh oil change! Next will be a complete suspension overhaul.
*sidenote - when you replace the radiator, you should replace the oil/transmission cooler connectors. The KEY to it NOT leaking is getting a good seal with the metal hose and the connector. NEVER replace just the gasket. You want a GOOD connection - not a 'should be' good connection. 4.3 vortec is notorious for oil/transmission leaks (ae. air filter banging against it on drivers side). Easy install - remove and replace. **note - make SURE you have the RIGHT connector. There ARE different ones depending on your model/yr. They're cheap $ and WORTH IT.
