Removed the radiator hoses, the expansion hoses outlet on the thermostat housing broke as I removed the hose, may need a new one if it can't be repaired. Cooling fan and pulley removed. Top and bottom radiator brackets bolts removed and radiator core slipped out without any trouble.

Some rust on the radiator and will need to get pressure tested [recon replacement is £155 aprrox].
Brackets, fan, hoses and expansion bottle boxed and ready for storing.
Hi Robsport I have found are cheaper than Rimmers & do lots of 2nd hand parts - they do a thermo housing UKC 6916 used for £14 + vat.
ReplyDeleteI also found buying a spares car to break for parts is quite a cost saving when you start adding all the parts you need. At the end weighing in the steel shell left overs will get back £100 at the scrap merchant.
Good luck Neil
