    Gonna be ordering a new radiator soon and I think I’ve got one located through American Radiator. My old radiator support bushing were absolutely deteriorated to ####. So, now I’m trying to determine the correct support bushings for this radiator. I’ll post some pics of the bushing choices that 4 States says are all applicable for a W900L of my vintage. I’m saying two of the three are not correct. IMG_6243.png IMG_6237.png IMG_6241.png IMG_6238.png

    Go with poly and don't forget the gasket for the bottom neck along with CAC bushings. Did mine a few years back.

    I think my radiator from them came with new bushings. I’d stick with original type. My ATRO motor mounts didn’t last long. In fairness they were subject to plenty of oil. Main reason is originals are softer. Better IMO for radiator/CAC. There’s been reports of engine vibrations using the poly engine mounts also. I think poly bushings are overrated. They don’t last twice as long. OEM doesn’t use them. I like the ATRO anti walk rear spring bushings. They’re hard as a rock. But takes the wiggle out of the on Airliner suspension. So it seems.

    Surprised that Radiator w/tank is still so affordable.

    4 States offers one similar but core height, is only 32”. Maybe shorter for the T series.
