Just bought an aluminium radiator from a 3sgte (thinking it was 6gc one)
But turns out its from a ST185 GT4, and the top hose location and the clips that hold the radiator are different, that i can see from a quick glance wondering if anyones has made one fit before? Thanks This post has been edited by RoadRage: Apr 5, 2016 - 7:58 AM -------------------- |

Thanks I don't see why not. If you can get the hoses to reach, and secure the unit from slamming around, may do the job. Fan mounting may be an issue, unless they are already attached. May need to check the wiring pin outs. |

for sure the hose looks different, but it doesn't mean you can't use it, if you can find hoses that can reach end to end or cut up one to fit or get universal ones, it should work as long as it physically mounts or you get it to mount somehow.
