Radiator Mounts - pics
I am installing a new radiator and support in my project. I am going with a four row radiator instead of the original three row. The mounting frame and radiator are exact to the old ones, but the new radiator is wider. I ordered new mounts, the bottom fits right, but the top stands up too high as you can see. The mounts are the right width and are for a four row. Do I have the wrong top mounts?

Re: Radiator Mounts - pics
Got a close up pic of that bottom mount with the radiator sitting in it? Looks like it's not down all the way for some reason.

I went through this with mine. It's the channel in the rubber insert is not deep enough. I ground down the radiator side channel with a dremel.
