Not sure if I follow you. Are you asking about the rubber insert or the steel insert housing?. The steel housing size varies in size and location depending on side of radiator and engine installed. The rubber piece just presses into the housing, there is no nipple on it. The housing is riveted at the factory. If you need som 4 core ones, I may have them. You'd have to remove rivet and bolt them onto your support

I just bought some from Brothers. They list the bottom bracket as being the same on all radiators and just the rubber insert as being different. The top brackets are listed for HD radiator with different inserts. They all fit on mine. I switched to a HD radiator.

your talking about nipples, cups, and support? sounds like you've got bigger problems man!!! LOL!!

on a serious note, I've only ever seen the rubber pieces to fit the four core and 2-3 core radiator. i've got a set for a 4 core if you need them, I think that they are ok. they're on the parts truck. I'll look in just a few minutes.

i have no 4 core, i have 2-3 core, there are two styles i have here form past 67-72 trucks, the ones with a nipple deal on the bottom and the ones that go in the top brackets with no nipple deal

lol at Nathan lol i like nipples. yes but they have to be feminine ones, thank you anyways

so howcome i have nipple ones around here then for ? i like nipples and the word nipple alot, i dot know why, i just do. nipples.. damn.

lets introduce another word into here, rubber, yes I am talking about the rubber ones, not the metal housing thingies
thanks
