Radiator to hell
 

Today i hit a rut and the ol fan got stuck under a thin metal strap going down on the radiator. idk how the hell it happened but it did. screwed my radiator to hell. motor mounts seem fine and radiator seems tight. something gave but what? any ideas?

Under the radiator and core support is a pair af rubber mounts. You need to check them while you have the radiator out.

Just pulled it out. there was only one rubber mount in there. the guy i bought the truck off of replaced the radiator. i see he didnt care to pay enough attention to that little detail.

while you have the radiator out throw in a 7.3 powerjoke i/c its a nice upgrade

i think im going to buy an air to water kit down the road instead.

well it wasnt the bushing. i found it later on. i still have to idea what caused the problem thogh.

loose mounts on something???:humm:

Thats the next thing i am going to check. i have new ones. Only other thing i can think of either.

Those are the ones I was talking about. I don't wanna discuss how I know. Rocky

Also you need to check the core support for cracks amd broken welds around those rubbers.

I'd have a look at the transmission mount. :w2:
