Re: Rusted out holes on Frame
Does anybody know what hole diameter is supposed on the frame for the radiator support mounts?

Re: Rusted out holes on Frame
From this thread, one guys says 1.25" and one guy says 1.375". If that's not good enough for you, I'll measure mine when I get home tonight, my frame is stripped at the moment with no rust at the radiator support holes. I do however need to try the washer splice trick for my front cab mounts as they are in poor shape.davbell22602 wrote:Does anybody know what hole diameter is supposed on the frame for the radiator support mounts?

I need the exact the size. I found a welder that will refab mine with 12 gauge steel for $100 at my house from his service truck.

Hey, just measured mine, and they are 1 3/8" (1.375) diameter. And the frame thickness is .135", which is 10 gauge in sheet metal. FYI. Hope that helps.
