How long can I count on the radiator in my 960 900 1995

I have a '95 965 with 100K, am going to add a transmission cooler in series with the one in the radiator, and wonder how long I have until the transmission cooler in the radiator cracks and leaks coolant into my transmission. Should I bite the bullet and buy a new nissens radiator now or can I wait a couple of years (or until it breaks)? What is the life of the OEM radiators?

It is possible that my raditor has already been replaced, since I don't have a service history prior to 90K. (Although the timing belt was changed at 72K.) Is there a date stamp on the radiator somewhere? The radiator looks to be in great shape on the outside.

Thanks in advance,
Steve
