Default New Radiator-- best replacement?

Hey Everyone

Radiator is cracked on my Ranger. Coolant is slowly leaking out, but at a very slowly. Looking to replace the radiator before it gets too cold.. Anyone have any good suggestions as to an aftermarket brand?

There are some on ebay selling for around 80 bucks.. are these reliable?
Id get one, but dont want to end up SOL with the thing.

I can buy one at the auto parts store around town for about double that..

Anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks!

i would just get one from ford, aftermarket parts for different things are ok, but if it has to do with cooling your engine, i would buy the best one around.
