    Spryte Radiator

    I have the radiator out while swapping in the EFI motor so I took some pics. I started with some 1/8 aluminum and cut the width down to fit the tanks when wrapped around the radiator. I used some aluminum welding rod (it's really just soldering) to attach it. The sides are wider and I bolted on...

    Spryte Radiator

    Local place here wanted $1400 to recore the radiator for my '78 Spryte! I bought a Griffin 1-70208 for $400 delivered (Alaska...) I wrapped some 1/8 aluminum around it and "welded" it to the radiator. 2 pieces of 1luminum angle finished the job. I used those aluminum welding rods that are...

    Spryte radiator hoses

    My Griffin should show up today. I will need to fab up a mounting solution but I don't think that will be too hard. I have also spent time at the auto parts store comparing hoses for hours. This new radiator has the top fitting centered so both hoses should just have a single 90 in them. I...

    Spryte radiator hoses

    I was quoted was well over 1k to fix my radiator (including a re-core). I instead I ordered a Griffin 1-70208. It is close in size but I will need to come up with a mounting solution.

    Spryte radiator hoses

    Well, it looks like my hoses are OK, but the radiator is leaking pretty bad. Need to see if a local shop can repair, or if I can find a replacement.

    Spryte radiator hoses

    My Spryte (1978 w/300) currently has universal flexible radiator hoses of unknown vintage. Before I go for any long drives into the woods I want to get some new hoses on it, or at least in the parts box. Does anyone know of part numbers for the upper and lower radiator hoses? Thanks!

    Thans for the info. Whatever is one mine is about 1" bore, which explains why my arms are tired.

    Steering slave cylinder piston diameter

    I am pretty sure my Spryte (1978) has the incorrect slave cylinders. Can anyone tell me what the bore size is for the correct cylinders? Thanks.

    In need of suggestions / help!

    That bed looks awesome. How thick are the boards?

    I want to drive the snowcat remotely. Radio control or?

    We have been thinking about using linear actuators to replace the steering hydraulics. That would be a step towards this. Standard RC controls should be able to do the rest.

    Snow Trac by airmail..

    I think it was around $2400. And we paid $1600 for it so we had a functional Spryte for $4k.
