Well, First was the battery falling through the tray. Now its the radiator falling through the support. So as I stood at chevys parts counter for an hour trying to find this support, no luck.

To me on my car, looks as if there is a flat peice of metal directly beneath the radiator, then to "L" brackets hold that metal to the rest of the front end.

GM says that whole front end is a solid peice. (the metal sheet that has hole cut out for radiator)

So basically its down to, do i knock out the rusted support, and weld in a peice? do i unbolt an entire front end off a junkyard marrow? or does someone here have insight on where to get a new one?

Keep in mind, even if it costs 100 bucks over a peice od welded metal. I AM the guy who would pay the extra 100 for it to say GM on it lol

I dont know why, i just like keeping my cars factory.

thanks

The front-end doesn't unbolt from anything. Any solution will involve cutting and welding.

Re: Cancerous Marrow
the lower rad support doesn't bolt in place? I could have sworn it did.... You can bring a hacksaw to a junkyard (if they'll let you...) and cut one off a car, then weld it in, in an inconspicious place. That'll look cleaner then a customer made sheet metal part.
