So, I've been reading up on the process again and have heard some many peope that have had leaky Advance/napa/autozone cores and they say they fit all loose and dont put out as much heat and the lines dont line up...

but the OEM Core is $357!!!!! and the autobone one one is like $40... Its just going to suck doing and I would hate to do it again. Anybody have a hookup on OEM parts?
 
its not leaking yet, but its smelling pretty strong and its barely steaming up the windshield on some damp mornings.

I had thought about getting it fixed/rebuilt, but havent figured out anywhere in columbia to do it. Any ideas?
 
It just hit me....the reason i replaced my heater core was because I was replacing the AC condenser core. So while I had the dash out and was that far in I replaced the heater core(they are in the same box). It fit great and heats like new(very hot).

how long ago did you do this?
 
I think mine came from Napa and its been at least 2 years since I did it.

the reason I ask is because spectra, who supplys cores to many other brands to rebadge redid their cores for TJs last march because of the fitment issues, I'm wondering if he got a new one that fit properly.
