Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
SO when you pull it to paint it you will have to pull the whole x member? You have given me some great ideas for linkage with this configuration! Great job. I need to step my game or my tools or both!

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
This unit just showed up on my doorstep....looks very nice...some slight shipping damage to the fins but I think they'll straighten out with a comb...
Youd think for what it cost itd come with a armed escort.... Made by Griffin....

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Nice looking radiator and too bad about the fins...ouch.
Wondering about the lower outlet. Would having it on the other end of the tank help with hose fitment ? |

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Doug, I thought about relocating the inlet and outlet so I could use a over the counter hose...but I wanted to keep my factory shroud and it wouldn't fit if I moved the hoses....ive already ruffly test fit some hoses on the old radiator and I think itll be fine...top and bottom hoses will be 2pc hoses..im machining some aluminum hose connectors for them..and on the top hose im adding a shoulder to put a fitting in for the steam line...
the bottom hose will be simple...2 hoses with 90deg ends will work....the top one will be a little trickier but should work

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Gotcha, I should have known you would have a cool reason for that. Painting the radiator black?

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
yes sir....black it is...waiting on the eastwood black radiator paint as we speak...
since a good bit of the fins will be visible from the front and I didn't want it standing out,,griffin says the eastwood paint is all they recommend

Are you looking for a spring inside your lower hoses?

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Grumpy...I dont think I'll put one in at first...my other truck doesn't have one and I've never had a issue...but if it become a issue I'll definitely put a spring in....
