Check with local Radiator shops to see about having that one fixed. I will probably be much cheaper than buying a replacement from Onan/Cummings.

There is a Used parts place in Texas, but by the time you have it shipped and all, it may cheaper to have the old one fixed.

Also, are you sure it's the radiator, and not a hose or loose clamp, or even a bad radiator cap leaking?

Good Luck

If you can not find one or get it fixed, put some black pepper in it that will stop most leaks, I have done that a lot over the years it works better than most stop leaks sold in stores.

You might check the RV Salvage places, Colaw comes to mind.

I'm sure there are a bunch more but you can give these guys a call they may have the parts.
