Just checking the fluid levels this afternoon and noticed two perished rubber bushes.
They seem to be fixing a smallish radiator on the offside and said radiator is now loose.
Do I need to be concerned, if so can I fit new bushes easily ?
Engine is a 2.8 jtd
TIA

Tried to upload a video but file was too large

Put video on YouTube if you have acc then a link on here to the video. (y)
 
What is rad for ? a/con, intercooler, remote gearbox oil coller ? Can you trace pipes & work it out? Big or small pipes to it ? Intercooler pipes would be 2-3 inch ones
 
sounds to me like the intercooler support, well at least one of them is, the other is the main rad support if you are on about the two bushes up near the bonnet slam panel, just off to the one side of the bonnet catch.

either way, if you can unbolt it, you can replace it...
 
I've edited the video so it loads now.
I think it may be oil cooler but there are two large diameter air pipes.
Oops, file won't load, it's got wrong file extension.
The two bushes are at the top of engine bay on off side, rad is about 10 inches wide

Go down the local motor factors and sift through the exploded diagrams with them, they'll soon tell you whether it's dealer only or not (probably is)
