Rust has eaten my radiator bracket ...
Posted: Mon Jun 23, 2008 4:40 pm
My name is Chris and . . . I'm a Broncoholic.Hello ! ! !
I have a 1990 BII,took it to get a new exhaust system (nothing fancy,the old one had almost rusted away) and the guy said that I needed a new radiator bracket.He showed me what he was talking about and sure enough it was a rusted mess.The part that I'm talking about goes all the way across the bottom of the radiator (incase I'm calling it the wrong thing).
He also said that a body shop would have to do it and it was pretty expensive.He said that the entire front and fenders would have to be taken off or moved back to make the switch.
Sooo 2 questions ..1)Is the fix really that involved ?
2)Where do I find a new bracket ?
Any help or suggestions are appreciated. Chris
