jbooker82 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Another thing to watch with larger / longer radiators is make sure it isn't rubbing the steering stem on the back side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Looks like there's something wrong with the upper mount. Might be locating the top of the radiator too far forward. Post a pic of the mount from above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VoOK Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 They make great stuff, they also used to make billet impellers for much less than everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATVridinMaNiAc Posted August 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Oh wow cool, it looked nice but id never guess they were a quality radiator, i wonder how much they used to cost? and yea the mount is kind of weird i hadnt looked at it too good but it seems spaced out to much i know the radiator grill cover doesnt fit worth a damn because of it.

Looks like they were $325 back in 2006. http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=69842 Shoot an overhead view of that mount and the upper steering stem bushing/mounting bolts and we'll be able to tell you exactly what's wrong.

ATVridinMaNiAc Posted August 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Yea i know took me forever but here is a pic, its all crapped up and that frame piece that is between the tank and radiator seems tweaked a little from a rollover probably so im sure that messing with something.

Starwriter Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 The upper radiator mount is correct. I'm pretty sure the upper frame hoop is bent back. Very common after a roll over. This puts the steering stem in a bind and it's hard to get the gas tank out as well as the plastics not fitting right. Unbolt the upper steering stem bushing and I'll bet the steering stem springs forward. To bend the hoop forward, put a port-o-power or bottle jack between the hoop and the rear shock upper mount frame tube. It's common for the triangle shaped gusset to crack where it's welded to the hoop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
