Yes, it does have a small factory one that is a joke. Where is the cheapest place to get a tru cool 40K everyone talks about and how are yall plumbing them besides rubber hose, I do not want any leaks or a hose blowing off. Thanks

They put a 28" radiator in a 6.2 truck? Didn't realize they did that.

Pricing across the board is pretty competitive. Just have to keep your eyes peeled. Sponsors on the right of the screen, he-bay, Hama-zon... The list goes on.

I bought my B&M before the tru cools gots famous. So when it was time to replace my radiator, I got a hand weld all aluminum Genesis. It was 4 inches bigger than stock and for 1/2 the price. You may find a Trans cooler with Genesis.

So my Yukon has the small factory trans cooler but no oil cooler. Is this a 28" radiator? Thanks I'm thinking about doing the bigger rad if poss and adding the oil cooler lines to it and hopefully just slapping a fan to my factory trans cooler. Any opinions on this?

Opinion.. the only mistake is not to do it, honestly. Protect your investment.

I doubt they put a 28" radiator in a Denali with a 6.2. Measure the core to find out. It's either 28 or 34. I bet 34.
