I have a good ole eBay radiator and I need a bushing for the top brackets it looks like. Anyone have a hack for this or maybe I should just print something up from a poly material?

Gap area for the bushing in red.

 

If you have a 3D printer and TPU at hand, you could print these. I would however buy OE rubber grommet replacements, believe they are still available for cheap.

 

Yeah I thought that too, but I think the radius of the peg is a lot larger than stock so I don't think this would fit, right? Like a smooth brain I already scrapped the radiator with the bushing still on it.

And yeah +1 for TPU print. I could use a hose but IMO I'm not thrilled about the look of sliced hoses here.

 

From pictures it looks roughly the same as my OE radiator was. Do you have the old ones that came out at hand?

 

I was in the same boat except I needed NB grommets which are conveniently like $12 apiece. I just used some silicon hose from McMaster and cut it with a razor blade, it's not perfect but it was half the price and I have enough hose to make an infinite supply
