Anyone have a part number for either the missing rubber foot, or the entire post-nut-pad assembly? PET's giving me nothing.

Thanks!

 

You are looking in the wrong place... try illustration 105-05 items number 6, 7 and 8.

 

Ah thanks! Right in front of my eyes.

Related question - to go off-topic in my own thread 🙄 what holds the bottom of the radiator in place? I'm noticing a lot of front-back play which worries me 'cause it backs the lower radiator hose *very* close to the power steering pulley. I can shove the radiator forward and get 1/2" or 3/4" clear, but if the radiator is pushed the other direction there's barely 1/4" between spinning metal and radiator hose. Thoughts?

 

Same illustration, item number 5 is the rubber bumper that limits the radiator movement at the bottom.

 

@931guru yes those rubber pads are present on my car... the radiator still moves back and forth a bit.

 

Best tool I have used my free pdf parts and shop manual I found online - so helpful where chasing down correct parts -

 

“Inch as good as a mile.”

AFAIK, the radiator just sits in the rubber mounts and is held in place at the top, but mostly by the radiator hoses. I think this is by design so the radiator isn’t solidly mounted and susceptible to twisting and cracking of the solder joints like it would be if it was solidly mounted. As my LCSW ex used to say: “Don’t regret the future.”

 

Yep yep yep. I appreciate the "loose" flexy fixing of the radiator—in principle. The new thicker? silicone hoses also reduce clearance a bit. I agree—radiator hoses mostly hold it in place. Just something to watch.

 

The rubber snubbers hold the radiator in place very well, not the hoses. If the radiator is moving, the parts are either not positioned correctly, or the rubber is deformed. Best to replace all 4 rubber bits.
