saging front end
Hi All
I took the rad support out to paint it before I put the new radiator in, lo and behold the mounting area seems to have rotated out making it imposible to bolt the rad back in .I assume I will have to jack up the body to get thing back in line, but just where are the proper lift points for this? TIA ( 71 bb )

Hi J,
Once the core support is loosely bolted to the reinforcements in the splash aprons, the support can be shimmed up from the front cross member where the support bolts to the member.
I would use a pry bar between the bottom of the support and the cross member to lift the support to be able to slide the shims in place
Take a look at your AIM for 71, UPC 11, Sheet A 10.

Alan
