Radiator - Finally!

So I finally found a radiator... but decided to settle for the NC30 radiator because I can't keep looking for a NC35 one... it seems impossible to find one in SA.

I decided to take the NC30 one and make it fit because it was cheap enough eventhough it's not exactly in a great condition... so I guess I'll still be looking for a replacement but this one came with a no leak guarantee...

Now, to fit this NC30 rad to a NC35, I notice that the mounts are a bit different... but would I need to change the mounts or will it still fit with some minor modification to the NC30 mounts?

Any tips from someone who knows a bit more about fitting this will be greatly appreciated.

I've an NC30 bottom rad on my NC35, which I swapped some years ago and as far as I can recall the mountings were the same! I do remember that the fan connector blocks were different, so I had to keep the NC35 fan, which was also a straight swap/fit!

I've fitted the NC30 top rad to my NC35 with far less hassle than I thought. The mounts are different but with a spacer on the bolt side and tapping the hanger side of the mount inward.. it fits ok.

So now I'm Finally back on the road... woohooo :D

I love my NC!
