I am trying to remove the radiator on my M. I have the steering shaft removed and all other bolt and hoses. I can't find the two bolts that attach the bottom of the radiator. I looked at it but can't find any place to get in. It has the wide front end on it. Do I have to remove something to get in there?

I just put a radiater back on an m with a "universal" wide front. the bolts were very hard to get at but I did get the nuts back on without removing the wide front.

I finally got around to removing the radiator. It only took about 15 minutes to drop the frontend and loosen the two bolts on the radiator. Now I just have to take the radiator in and get the hole fixed.

Thanks,

Never worked on one with a wide front. But...if there is a plate on the wide front that bolts up to the bottom of the front bolster, you may have to take it off to get to the radiator bolts. There are two holes, one each side of the bolster, in the bottom of the front bolster casting. You can stick a socket with extension up through there to get to the nuts on the radiator studs. With the tricyle front, there is nothing covering the holes in the bolster. However, on older Ms, the bolster did not have the holes and you have to work through from under the bolster center to reach the nuts, not an easy chore. Also, the nuts on the studs are castle nuts with a cotter pin to keep them from coming off, so first you have to get the cotter pin out. It it's still acoording to spec, there is a spring on the stud, then a washer and the castle nut with the cotter pin.
