There are 2 of them there IIRC to insinuate that someone stole yours is a huge insult. The guy that go there are as honest as the day is long.


Jim I was thinking that maybe I can have the pinhole in the 6.0 cooler that I have there fixed, Thoughts??

That is what I though but will the cost of having someone weld the aluminum outweigh what the cooler is worth?

i just spoke to jim(rat49f6) about trying to tig weld the cooler. i have NEVER had any luck with welding a radiator or a cooler. i dont do it everyday though, like a welding shop. i have had them welded at a shop close by for usually about 50-75 bucks depending on the location. im sure there are some shops around the OP that could help him. i dont want to volunteer and ruin it. at least now it is fixable. good luck

on a side note: i dont think anyone in this group would steal ANYTHING. they have been nothing but great guys, friends and helpers to a stranger(me). They never met me and spent a whole day...over 12 hrs helping me work on my truck. they are great guys....

I have welded Aluminum too Chris but it was while working for factories and they had some incredible welding equiptment. Not worth it to have it repaired $$ wise to me.

OP - - you could check car-part.com to see if a yard has one. i have had great luck with this site. usually i have to have the parts shipped, but they are usually cheap.

i think you misunderstood, i meant I stole it out of MY barn for one of MY projects.

ill have to grab one next meet, im way overdue to get a bigger one on my truck especially now that the tranny is fresh.

jb weld would probably work well, but the parts would need to be perfectly clean when applying it.

Perfect example of the written word vs the spoken word, electronic communications are handy, but are so easily mis-interpreted, as much is lost without inflection of voice.....................
