  • Self attaching upper radiator mount
    Patent number: 5605200
    Abstract: An upper radiator mount is self attaching and fastenerless, working in conjunction with the lifting motion by which a subframe, with attached radiator, is lifted toward and into the vehicle body. Resilient fingers on a radiator tank mounted base simultaneously slide over and grip side walls of an aligned body tie bar as the subframe is lifted. The fingers are specially designed with pivots and a web that ties them together so as to rock in and strongly grip the tie bar when it hits and compresses the web.
