Radiator mounts
I have a 1970 frame and I am putting a 1968 radiator support on the 70 frame, which radiator mounts do I use?

Re: Radiator mounts
The radiator support mounts on a 70 are different from a 68.

Re: Radiator mounts
Are you using the whole 68 frontend clip or just the radiator support?

Re: Radiator mounts
radiator supports are different from 68 to 70 intirely. depending on if you have a 3flu or 4flu makes a difference in where the radiator mounts and the retainers that hold them in place also! 4flu is wider than a 3flu.

Re: Radiator mounts
Use the core mounts that correspond to the year of the frame you are using. In your case, use the 69-72 core mounts. This is your answer.

Re: Radiator mounts
Thanks for all your help. I hope they work. I'm also looking for the best company that sells bed sides for my short box, any suggestions?
