Message: [QUOTE="SEABEE08FX4, post: 1280490, member: 56"] Its not a job 1 2 3 thing, its a frame flex thing. Cab mounts either rot out to the point of falling apart and allow the frame to flex more putting the added strain on the core support and radiator, or just loose their stiffness and become spongy and soft causing the same result. The two better options are Daystar poly mounts or Dorman solid rubber mounts. The issue with the solid rubber ones is they will eventually crack and shrink but will out last the stock ones. With the poly one they don't crack or rot but will shrink slightly so a retorque needs to be done after some miles are put on them. As far as radiators go, if the mounts haven't been addressed it won't matter it will damage any of them. However that said if it needs to be replaced a full aluminum one with better cooling ability is a no brainer. The Mishimoto one has also been updated with rubber instead of solid post to further help keep the stress off the radiator when the chassis / frame flex. [/QUOTE]
