Are these special order items or something I might scrounge up in a local parts shack?

bigblock73 · 01-15-2010, 02:02 PM

Most resto companies have them

smashingchuck · 01-15-2010, 02:54 PM

LMC has them

swb85 · 01-15-2010, 03:03 PM

yeah I knew places like that had them available.....was hoping to find a set without having to order and wait for them to be delivered, kinda in a jam here.

I've sliced and diced radiator hose as a temporary fix.

Check your local pick and pull. If you can find a square body in there, you will find these pieces. I have picked up a couple of sets like this to avoid ordering anything and paying more in shipping that the part costs

Good call, can't believe I didn't think of that! Maybe I'll grab some duct tape and fix some rust while I'm at it.

have you tried a local radiator shop they may have them

Prerunner1982 · 01-15-2010, 07:59 PM

Local dealership will/should have them. When I put a 4 core in my 82 I went to the local Chevy dealer parts dept, had them in stock.

swb85 · 01-16-2010, 12:25 PM

Our local stealership is the biggest joke ever, nothing is EVER in stock for any vehicle older than 6-7yrs and the markup is 200-300%.
I got it put back together for now with some scrap radiator hose in place of the top 2 pads and ordered a new pair from LMC to do it right on a warmer day.

I know this is an old one, but exactly what i am going through. no AP store has them. getting ready to order from LMC or summit. i wanted to find out if the ones from LMC were axactly like the original ones. the ones i just took off my radiator had a metal kind of clip thing at the end (dont know exactly what for) but LMC does not have a piture. can you tell me if the LMC worked for you. thanks.
