M42 Radiator Question

05-18-2011, 02:37 PM

The drivers side upper pipe thing (the barbed pipe your coolant hose slides over) decided to break off.

Can that entire side of the radiator be replaced, or is it fucked? I'm thinking the latter, but I'm hoping I'm wrong.

I know you can get new expansion tanks, but it doesn't look like the broken pipe is a part of that assembly....

Mine did the same thing a few months ago. Start looking for another one.

what you did to this car is like getting a supermodel naked and willing to do anything you please. now here you are faced with ths once in a lifetime opportunity and then you squander it by making her fuck you in the butt with a 24" strap on. you are a sad, silly little boy.

Thanks, and yeah...after looking at my spare it doesn't look like its worth the trouble of trying to fix.

Fuck plastic cooling system components.
