Hi All, I picked up a new 4 core raditator for my old burb. It was my plan to reuse in my '72 Cheyenne when I put it back on the road in the near future.

But when I went to put it in the top and bottom rubber/ steel mounts will-not fit it. Is there such a thing as larger mounts? It had a 3 row in it to start with. And after putting in the heater core I see what you guys are talking about it being larger. But the it fit just fine with a little old yankee enginering.

I made new brackets for inside with large coat hangers that I threaded for 6/32 nuts on the end. Any help on this matter would be great.

Thanks much, Tom.
