Rubber pads under radiator

Are these special order items or something I might scrounge up in a local parts shack?

Re: Rubber pads under radiator

yeah I knew places like that had them available.....was hoping to find a set without having to order and wait for them to be delivered, kinda in a jam here.

I've sliced and diced radiator hose as a temporary fix.

Re: Rubber pads under radiator

Check your local pick and pull. If you can find a square body in there, you will find these pieces. I have picked up a couple of sets like this to avoid ordering anything and paying more in shipping that the part costs

Good call, can't believe I didn't think of that! Maybe I'll grab some duct tape and fix some rust while I'm at it.:lol:

Local dealership will/should have them. When I put a 4 core in my 82 I went to the local Chevy dealer parts dept, had them in stock.

Re: Rubber pads under radiator

Our local stealership is the biggest joke ever, nothing is EVER in stock for any vehicle older than 6-7yrs and the markup is 200-300%.
I got it put back together for now with some scrap radiator hose in place of the top 2 pads and ordered a new pair from LMC to do it right on a warmer day.
