MO New Repair piece for lower right hand side of radiator support - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Clatterville trolley** · 02-04-2021, 03:10 PM

I have been making these for folks that I sell parts to for some time and thought I might offer a couple to the folks on here.

I hand form these and they come with the weld in nuts and factory OEM bolts.

They are made out of 16 gauge steel - I checked the thickness of the steel in the radiator support with a gauge and they appear to be about 17 gauge, so these are a little thicker than stock.

I constructed them to be long enough to reach under the upright where the rust normally stops unless it is really baaaadddd!

I leave the weld nuts loose so that it allows slight adjustment to line up with the holes in the inner fender front - once you get them where you want them it is easy enough to spot them in.

Right now I only have two made up so that is all I am selling for the moment - not trying to turn this into a business.

Price $75 shipped to you.

First photo shows the replacement piece next to a rusted up one that I removed to replace with new.

Last photo shows where the new repair piece goes on a radiator support.

Works for 67-72 C10's

You state: "Works for 67-72 C10's", I believe it will work on my 72 K10 as well, correct? If the answer is "Yes", I'll take one.

I have never to my knowledge had any 4 wheel drive parts, so I can't say for certain. However, if a regular radiator support for a 2 wheel drive will interchange with one for a 4 wheel drive, then yes it will work. Jay

Nice part! I can tell you spend a lot of time on those.

Ryan,

The core supports are the same for a 2wd/4wd.

I figured the repair piece was the same for 2 or 4 wheel drive, but it's always good to get confirmation. Thanks Ray.

PAYPAL Payment sent
