1980 C10 Radiator Core support ?

Should receive mine new support in the mail in the next two weeks and am looking for any advice from those that have already changed one. I already have the fenders off and the inner fenders will be off as well. I have a Energy Suspension body mount kit, and hopefully will not run into many problems. Anyone have advice or those parts that you need to change while you are already there?

Stainless core support bolts are a good idea at this point. Some paint on the frame and details is easy to do at this point. Just look for things that may need maintenece or some preventative maintenance.

Well got it in the mail today and have to say for what I paid for it it will work great...
Amazon.com: OE Replacement Chevrolet/GMC Radiator... Amazon.com: OE Replacement Chevrolet/GMC Radiator...
I paid 126 and it had free shipping, it has a few spots that require a touch up here and there but nothing a body hammer cannot fix. I ordered it on the 8th of Aug and it arrived on the 23rd of September.

Hope this helps anyone who comes up to changing this part.

One and a half months seems like a long time to wait for parts.
