Greetings 3rd genners. I am aware that quite a few of you have had to replace your lower radiator supports for various reasons. Mine has a crack in it and i want to replace it ASAP. How'd you go about removing the old one and installing the new one? Your replies would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

 

the support? like the actual metal frame of the car? or just the 2 rubber insulators?

 

The two tabs that hold the radiator up? If cracked, you will have to either cut/weld or just weld the crack up again. They aren't bolted to the car.

 

No...i mean the actual frame where the x-member bolts up...

 

if its just cracked and the car is straight (not hit)...i would consider welding a patch on it and calling it a day.

 

Yea the frame isn't bent at all. What metal is it made out of so i know which type of scrap metal to look for. Thanks.
