m916 radiator gaskets

[Crider281]

Hi all,

I am looking for the radiator gaskets for our 916. I believe they are part numbers 781921 and 781921-c. Here is a diagram of them from Oshkosh. (They don't have them, not sure if anybody else will...might have to get something made).

#6 and #12 on diagram.

We even tried contacting Indiana Heat Transfer Corp. (who we think made the original radiators, but they are out of business).

Any advice from you 916-920 owners?

find out the width and thickness of the cork you need and buy it from McMaster Carr or other automotive supply. You can make your own. Alot of folks did that on the 5 ton radiators for their side gaskets. Just a little time consuming drilling the holes out.

Those numbers come back to McCord Gaskets which is now owned my Federal Mogul

Good advice, I will have to look into doing that.

Even one step ahead of me!

I'm pretty sure i bought cork strips for my 915 radiator when I rodded it out. I'll try to find where that was.
