    If that's the case, yeah its time for new. That aluminum oxide kills efficient heat transfer.

    We've re centered the fan in the shroud, there are no damaged or missing pieces. My pops is a journeyman HD mechanic, our shop is an approved repair and inspection facility. We've tried everything, the rad is old and rotting, needs a new one.

    This is the info I'm looking for. Which rad did you go with, and where do I get my hands on one?

    I bought mine from Westside radiator in Ephrata, PA but they went out of business. Try Detroit radiator, they will have what you need. When its time for me to get a new one that's who I plan on calling. They also offer heavy duty air charge collers as well.
     
    Troy_ Thanks this.

    Thank you, good sir. May all your miles be profitable and trouble free. I'll call them and get the brand name, I'm sure I can get one ordered and shipped up here.
