new RnD radiator installed... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

well after a few months i finally got the new RnD radiator i got installed. took me an hour going through all the hoses at the auto parts store to find the right ones for my LS swap. i am listing the hose part numbers below in case it could help someone else. i think it looks pretty good in there and it fits like it should... i do like the inlet and outlet on the same side.

Continental #62143 upper
Continental #61416 lower

will

Looks great! I have an RND radiator also and should be installing it in the next few weeks.

Nice!

Any mount adjusting?

wshattuck · 08-20-2019, 07:44 PM

no mounting adjustment needed for my truck... i had to buy the correct upper and lower mounts and pads from LMC since the ones that were in there were not anywhere close to the right ones...

Great! Thanks!

Looks great, thanks for sharing the part numbers for the hoses. My RnD radiator is lost in UPS land, no one can seem to find it.

What air intake is that? I need to order one

wshattuck · 08-21-2019, 03:29 PM

sceptre air intake... i like the tube and bends but the air filter seems to flex alot... i have ordered a new one to replace it.

Bringing this back up ...I am installing my RND radiator soon and just realized my bracket is not the right one. You bought a new bracket from LMC top and bottom?

Did you have to use a reducer for the upper hose?
