Mounting Aluminum Radiator Pic.

[dsgb610]

I just purchased a Summit brand Aluminum Radiator. The radiator is slightly smaller than the OEM one I removed from truck. Whats the best way to mount this? I cant weld, but I was thinking of attaching brakets to the sides, and screwing it to the frame. Would anytype of glue be strong enough for this?
Open to any ideas. Thanks.

     If you are dead set on using this radiator, get someone who can help you make brackets to mount it correctly. " Would any type of glue be strong enough for this?"  Please do not use glue to try to "glue the radiator" in place. 
     This would be a bad idea for so many reason's.

Hey guys, I ended up using wire straps that you see up under the sink. I got them from Lowes on the plumbing isle. I stayed in lowes for atleast a hour looking for something that would work. Weird I dont even remember asking "if glue would work" lol.... late frustrating nights will do that for you.... The wire straps are working pretty good. Looks weird/semi-bootleg but I removed the factory mounting brakets  and pulled them really tight and bolted them in near the factory mounting holes. It looks ok to me.. will do for now or until the summer.

Im not sure if summit slapped the wrong sticker on this part but it was sold as a "direct fit".

If you are gonna run with your new aluminum radiator wired into place, then you may want to think of cutting some fuel hose or something and put in between your radiator and the wire. The vibration from driving will cause the wire to rub holes in your new radiator and that would suck.
