Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

      I removed the top radiator mounts (the one that are held in by two bolts each). Then just lifted that one side of the radiator, that should give you the needed clearance.

        Lifting the radiator up is about the only way to get it on and you can get the clam on good from the bottom.

            WooHooo
            That trick work wonderful.

            Lift up radiator -> heat up the water -> Boil the end of the hose -> Put some car wash soap around the inside of the hose and the neck -> Slide in like wonder

            I also changed the bottom clamp to the Stainless Steel Screw type clamp from Home Depot.
