SOLD: MG TF Radiator+fitting kit (hoses, mounts, fan switch)

[lankyjames]

Time to clear out what remains of my midas parts, I have:

MG TF radiator
(will fit a MK1/MK2 Midas with little mods, bottom mounts are the same distance as the standard metro /allegro mk1 radiator), aluminium so lightweight, cross-flow including fan.


Rad Mounts:
4x MG TF rubber mounts for the radiator


Silicone hoses:
2x ASH 30mm 45 degree (for the bottom hose)


2x ASH 30mm 90 degree (for the top hose)


Stainless Pipe:
1x ASH 1m x 32mm OD (for the top hose)


Fan Switch:
1x 32mm including temp switch


Clamps:
10x 30-40mm stainless pipe/hose clamps


This full kit should be enough to convert your MK1/2 to an upgraded aluminium radiator (which can be easily source and replaced in the future), replace the aging rubber hoses with stainless / silicone, add a fan switch (as the rad doesnt have one built-in) and secure with quality stainless clamps.

I will be putting these on ebay but thought I would offer it here first (as these are appropriate!), entire lot cost me around £100, will take sensible offers for the lot - collection preferred but of course I can post!

Anybody at all interested?

I could be, if it will fit into a mark 3. Can you think of any reason why it might NOT fit?

Off the top of my head no, you'll have to take into consideration the front round driving/fog lights as having never looked into a mk3 bay I don't know how the radiator mounts anyway.

I can provide radiator dimensions if you want to measure it up, but its not much larger than the metro radiator while being slightly thinner.

[DavidL]

The Mark3 foglights don't intrude into the radiator space, so they shouldn't be a problem. Could you measure the height and width, and the distance between the bottom mounting pegs please? If I know these measurements I should be able to come to a decision.

Taken from an ebay listing:


I can confirm these when I return home (6pm)

[DavidL]

I need to check the available room in my car before I make a decision. Hopefully I'll get that done tomorrow, as well as the MoT on my partner's Sprinter van and the mobility scooter about 60 milies away from here whose front wheels I need to replace.

Annoyingly, I was meant to have been in Nottingham over last weekend, but didn't make it due to a stripped driveshaft in Bradford and subsequent premature return home.

[lankyjames]

Will you be making a return visit to Nottingham soon?

[DavidL]

I'm working on it, but it's too soon to say. Are you anywhere near Littlegreen Road by any chance?

Stroke of luck David, my parents live not 5 mins walk from Littlegreen, I used to have to walk to school along it, so you could say I know it pretty well!

I'll be visiting my parents this Sunday, so I could drop the items off at Littlegreen and save on postage, effort and Royal Mail drop-kicks and you can collect at your leisure!
