The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot Big Bolts Radiator mount

When I got the 48 2 ton the radiator frame was setting on the cross member (wore at least a sixteenth into the cross member} and had 2 bolts hanging through the holes with nothing else.

Question: should be the mounting be-

rubber pad top and bottom, with nuts and washers

rubber pad on top and springs, washers, nuts and cotter pins on the bottom

If its anything like my old M or H there should be a rubber grommet in between the rad and the cross member. If it is such a thing there would be 2 nut with 2 decently wide washers bolting it securely to the member.

Nice to see another tractor person here. Nice Farmalls.

I'd say you need that truck.

Recent restoration projects: '53 ford NAA (Golden Jubilee), '48 Massey Harris Pony W/hyd, '55 Farmall Cub and currently in the works a '59 Porsche 308L Super Diesel.
Oh yea, '71 Sears Suburban SS-16 and a '72 GE Elec-Trac.

I haven't seen a porsche tractor in person. Be neat to see one one day haha.
