The radiator out of my M56 is spewing fluid from the middle column (it never leaks from somewhere accessable!). When I drained it, there was a lot of rust and redish fluid. Nusure if my tanks are bad as well as the core. I figure I might have two options. 1. Get original rad recored. 2. Look for a replacement radiator....newer...that will fit, or fit close enough with minor modification.
1. Does anyone know a radiator shop in New England (New Hampshire preferrably) who can recore these radiators...and an idea of the cost.
2. I saw somewhere Toyota Cruiser FJ 40 radiators work with minor mod (couple of holes for the bolts). Does anyone have experience with using this type, or another type of radiator. If so, do you know a part number I can research? (FYI, when I looked at the FJ 40 rads on line, the hose to rad inlet is on the left. Both of my hoses are on the right. Top tight is a 2" od. Bottom right is 1 1/2 OD.
