Radiator Bracket

  













   The experts at
Dominator say it is not a good idea to weld tabs onto an aluminum radiator but to make some sort of bracket that uses a clamp rather than just bolting tabs to the support.

I TIG welded plates to the ends of 1" X 1" tubing that was cut at a 45 degree angle. I sanded the weld smooth and attached the tabs I had made for bolting to the radiator support

 

Using the press I bent the 1/8" plate to step it up over the first pieces I made. The bottom of the radiator has 2 flanges that extend the length of the radiator and fit snug over the 1/8" plate

 

This is the upper clamp. This design is the way I was told to do it at work, I would have made it differently
