Add a radiator to the long list.....

[dpuckett]

..... of stuff this God-forsaken corner of the deepest reaches of Hades has cost me. Let's see, so far, I'm up to: business, home, marriage, sanity, self sufficiency, independence, clear breathing (part of living in the allergy capitol of the country), pickup body, and now we are working on mechanical parts of said pickup.



Thanks to the wonderfully intelligent, clear thinking, considerate good kind folks who run the county road "maintenance" department, I now have a radiator that has been busted all to heck. The soldering/ brazing holding the tanks to the end brackets broke away this afternoon on my way home, leaning the radiator into the fan hub, and rubbing through the rear core of the radiator. Now, that said, and seeing the love I possess of this area (SEMO), where (outside the boundaries of MO/Ark) can I get a new radiator? I believe this one is beyond repair. That, and I am not going to ship something to another state to get it cobbled or fixed half arsed. MY MONEY IS NOT GOING INTO THE LOCAL ECONOMY, if I have to pay shipping from Australia!!!



Thanks in advance for your help, ideas, and understanding.

Dam, sorry to hear that Daniel Think of it this way, when you're on the bottom there's nowhere to go but UP! Dam, I hope things get better for ya soon bro... you've been cussin that place ever since i can remember. Was it the small rad you had before? At least getting the bigger rad would make ya feel a little better... . I just bought a truck&equipment trader mag, i'll browse through it for ya see if i find anything. I'm sure it would be cheaper to get from here than Australia lol
