Condenser mounting
Does anybody have a photo of the hardware for mounting the condenser to the core support? (1975 c10/c15)
Are there rubber isolators/bushings or does it mount with simple bolts and nuts? |

Re: Condenser mounting
From a quick visual look at my 75 C10, looks to be four hex head bolts, one in each corner, that directly hold the coil to the support. Can't tell type of bolt, true bolt with nut vs hex screw and threaded hole/clip. Back side is hidden by the radiator. The separate piece of adapter tubing that goes through the core support and connects the coil to the two hoses does have a non-metal bushing for the hole in the core.

Re: Condenser mounting
Thanks. There were stainless bolts/washers/nuts on this one. It was in a collision decades ago and got a new core support then, so I wasn't sure it if was put back together correctly. This confirms no rubber isolators other than for the tubes that pass through the core support. There is a grommet in the core support.

Re: Condenser mounting
My 77 has well nuts, you'll have to google the name to get a pic, at the condenser mounting locations on the core support. They act as an insulator for the condenser and you don't have to have a nut on the radiator side of the core support.

Here's a pic of the well nut. Mine are 1/4 20.

Re: Condenser mounting
Thanks! That makes total sense and I was actually starting to wonder if that's what the factory used.
