    Ebay Aluminum Radiator Installation

    So, in my search for a resolution to my connection situation, I explored several alternatives. One of them was looking for another radiator with the correct connections. These folks responded quickly and it looks like their radiator is a bit more plug and play with what looks like the correct...

    Ebay Aluminum Radiator Installation

    I have checked all the sources for a CU850. The CHEAPEST I could find (and I did find ONE) was $1700. All the web sites list them, but when you go to order, it will eventually tell you out of stock. At $499, it would be an investment if you bought all 7 !!!!

    Ebay Aluminum Radiator Installation

    OK, the saga continues, but gets happier (for me) as it progresses. I spent 4 hours today and 4 hours yesterday running around from parts house to parts house, machine shops, and radiator shops to find a solution to the heater hose issue. Here is some information I found out during my search...

    Ebay Aluminum Radiator Installation

    OK, I still need to know where I can find this part: The nipple that was removed from the old radiator (heater hose connection to the radiator) and looks to have an NPT thread pitch. The plug and bung that came with this radiator look to have a slightly finer and different thread pitch...

    A little bit of a rough ride using those steel wheels, but it would be "different" !! And thanks for the offer, but as for needing them up in CT, if I bring home any more "yard art" the wife said she will lock me out !

    Oh, I'm good Rick. My fuel system is tight now and my girl starts in all four seasons with minimal cranking without an additional electrical pump.

    Thanks for the suggestions Rick. I am sure I'll figure that sensor thing out. Another question. What is the fitting on the right called ?? It was on my old radiator and was for the heater core hose connection. My radiator came with a plug in the hole that this fitting goes into. The...

    Ebay Aluminum Radiator Installation

    It's a good idea Rick, but I don't want to hack the old radiator apart yet. I am going to take it and see if it is savable for a future re-core. I am trying to keep everything plug and play. I am also waiting for a response from the folks I bought the radiator from to see what they come up...

    Dash Bezel and Printed Circuit.

    I think LMC may have the proper circuit board. As for the dash bezel, try Ebay, FB Market place or even Craigslist.

    OK, found out what that sensor is (Actually read the ™ !!). It is a low level fluid sensor for the radiator. One thing down, a bunch more to go.

    Also, I know that the transmission cooler line fitting connections to the radiator are 12-20 UNF. Does anyone know what size the oil cooler line fittings to the radiator are 5/8-18 UNF??)? I can't find it anywhere.

    Ok, now I am cleaning, painting and test fitting. This is my old sensor off the radiator (don't know what it is): It attaches to this connection: This is where it was mounted on the old radiator: And this is the new mounting spot on the new radiator (not the same, looks like a slip on...

    Ebay Aluminum Radiator Installation

    Disconnected all four cooler lines (2 for trans, 2 for oil) and capped them. I first disconnected both batteries, and then I removed the front battery, it's tray and then the overflow bottle on the drivers side so I would have room to work (I am glad I did). I removed all the bolts holding the...

    Ebay Aluminum Radiator Installation

    OK, this thread has a little info on the radiator I purchased for my M1009. 4 core, aluminum and about $280...shipped. Oh, it is the only one I found that SHOULD fit in our trucks. So today I finally got around to start disconnecting everything. The leak was coming from the passenger side...
