M42 radiator fitment

yes, but what about the smaller, two-groove pully that sits at the very end?

you're talking with no PS? I guess not then.

[Naplm00]

yea, without PS...i have a manua rack that im puttin on.


I didnt know if that smaller 2 groove was needed...someone a long while ago said that you could not remove it..no idea why

[SpecM]

I suppose you would need to get shorter bolts, thats about it...

[nando]

the pulley is like 2mm thick, I don't think you'd ahve a problem using regular bolts, or none at all since you're not using it.

you'd still need to attach the wp/alt pully and toothed wheel to the crank hub, right? don't the six bolts do that too?

they do, you would still need bolts, nando just wasnt thinking straight... right nando.

im interested in this also, Matt is there a specific reason why you would need the newer style WP? it seems that just running a hose from the 2nd output of the old WP to the res would be easier than chopping a $55 T hose.

I was thinking the pulley for the water pump/alternator is part of the damper/crank wheel. Unless it's for the PS.

it is, and the ps/ac pulley goes in the center of it as a seperate piece. but they use the same bolts

[nando]

right, those bolts hold on the crank wheel. that's why you need them.. lol.

[Naplm00]

lol ok

an update: bought the radiator, new sensor, thermostat and gaskets to do this job

It will be part of a overall huge job of oilpan gasket, swapping steering racks and replacing intake gaskets
