Why don't you go to the DAKOTA forum ? $1000 retail ????? Why pay that for fucking radiator that the fan won't even fit on ???? I hope you buy 10 of them and get stuck with everyone. Maybe it's not really a Viper radiator and you "ARE" a FOOL.
are you a COMPLETE idiot?
how could a person owning such a nice ride (viper) be so incredibly STUPID ?
1. why not go to a dakota board? BECAUSE I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH A PRODUCT MADE/SOLD FOR DODGE VIPERS YOU DOUCHEBAG.
2. why pay that for a radiator that won't even fit the fan? BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW THAT YOU IDIOT. Its listed as a viper radiator from a respectable company (be cool)
3. maybe its not really a viper radior? WELL HOW THE F*** WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW? The part number is what becool lists on their web page, the radiator matches the part number, and the radiator fits - just upside down.. Could it be a coincidence that another rad. uses bolt pattern and size so close? I hardly doubt it.
4. why not buy it from other vendors? Because unlike you I HAVE A BRAIN. Why buy something for 650 dollars when the same thing (same thing, read: brand name radiator made specifically for the dodge viper.. same as the others) is only 300 dollars, more than half the price.
No offense to anyone else but does this message board completely lack reason and common sense? Or am i lucky enough to have the some forum trolls respond to the thread?
is it such a hard concept to understand that i picked up a brand name radiator made for dodge viper and want to use it with a dodge viper electric fan however they do not bolt up - and i am told to buy another radiator or go to a dakota board? jesus christ, what is up with stupidity??
i've PMed JT to see if he had the same issue and should get an email back from be-cool tomorrow.. thanks to those who have a functional brain and have understood what my problem is. the rest of the posters in this thread are nothing but jokes with money...
My point is, you are wanting a Viper guy (my friend...that knows Viper parts VERY well) to pay you $500 for a fucked up radiator that you paid $300 for. Why would HE (NOT YOU DUMBASS) not get one of these other radiators ? Just because you think he is a fool and would base the value on $1000 ??? Granted, it may be a msrp of $1000, but obviously it is only worth around $6xx...IF it wasn't fucked up, IF it had a warranty, IF you could send it back to the seller.
My reference to the Dakota forum was not for you to go there to seek advise on a "Viper" radiator.....it was meant to say(as some of our other members would put it) Go the fuck away if you are going to start acting like a dumbass !!
You have 11 posts and act like a dumbass......then you are the troll. I have 488 post and act like a dumbass.....then I am just a dumbass, not a troll. Get it ?
Now forgive me while I talk sensible for just a minute.
The mounting tabs/studs for an early fan and a late model fan (like yours) are different. You probably have a radiator for an early fan.....it should still work. I have been there, but I forget the exact details.
Goes something like: you will need to delete one of the bottom studs and add a bolt or stud to the top. It's close, just do what you need to do to make it work and things will be fine.

Why? I don't know, why Doesn't he get them? He asked me for a price and I gave it to him. Is it a fucked up radiator? I don't know - its brand new and out of the box. And like you said - the others sell for 6xx. I offered him 5 even - still a good deal if ya ask me.
And I don't act like a dumbass - please quote complete ignorancy on my part and I will stick my head up my ass and take a picture.
Your point about a dakota message board is rediculous and void - I did not come on here acting like a jerk or a dumbass. I nicely and politely asked a question, then got shit from some members. All I did was respond to it - NOTHING was initiated by me, and if I see stupidity towards me, Damn right I will respond to it.
However Thank you very much on the info about the radiator. Custom fabbing isn't a problem, I just wanted to double check that it needs to be fabbed up before I went in cuttin and fabbing on a piece that in theory should fit fine. So thanks again for the info.
And I don't act like a dumbass - please quote complete ignorancy on my part and I will stick my head up my ass and take a picture.
You do act like a dumbass, you can either take my word for it, or call me out on it. If you choose the latter path, rest assured, you would be inserting your noggin up your spinxter for a SpawnX photographic enima tour of your rectum.
its funny though you completely disregard lack of reason and common sense on behalf of the other members though - wonder if you are blind to not see the ignorance in this thread from the other members or just not flaming your own? I would hope its the second one..
OH what an asshole! Fuck that dude. You guys up for a Jihad on that POS web site? Look at the ignorant BS these guys are spewing.
What an ASSHOLE? Excuse me??
I come on here nicely and politely asking a question and am greeted with all sorts of IGNORANT and pathetic responses with a complete lack of common sense - and I am the asshole?
By the way (no offence to any of the normal members on here) but idiots like yourself and others in this thread (again, absolutely NO offence to all viper owners, only to the idiots in this thread) are the laughing stock of several message boards as proof that *SOME* people have money and absolutely shit for common sense and brains.
By the way, we are not ricers or douchebags laughing at people like you - we're guys who do shit ourselves.. from redesigning the suspension from scratch to running 10 second quarter miles in street trim trucks.. Your kind is a joke.
My apologies to all the knowledgable folks on this board. If you read my post and this thread in general you will know that i did not come here with trolling intentions. If anything, I tried to calm this down in the beginning. My apologies to you again.
By the way -- [image]http://www.stuckatwork.com/mystuff/truck/cooling/viperstuff/03.JPG[/image] fan fits in nicely now that i cut and modded some stuff. [img]/images/graemlins/wink[/img]
You sir are the dumb ass. Do shit yourselves ??? And we don't ? I've tore up, fixed, modded, swapped, changed, done and redone more shit on vehicles than you have ever THOUGHT about doing.
You failed to tell your buddies that you were trying to market your radiator at a marked up price and that is where the problem started.
If your going to run over there and cry, at least get the fucking story right.
1. I didn't tell you to go ask the Dakota guys how to make it work.....I was saying: go the FUCK away if your going to try and screw over one of our guys. That offer still stands.....if you don't like it here, then get the fuck out.
2.I didn't ask you why didn't you buy the radiator elsewhere....I was saying "why would HE pay you $500 for an e-bay, no warranty, possible fucked up radiator when a new one from a respected Viper parts house is just a little more"
Do you have a problem reading or is it the comprehending that makes your pea brain come to a squeaking halt ??????????????
Maybe some of us act like our "shit doesn't stink" because assclowns like you keep coming to us for help with Mickey Mouse crap like "help me write my resume".

and my main complaint is not with you.. you just turned into an assclown when i tried to sell your buddy the radiator for 5 bills - new, made for viper, etc. and didn't like that too much because i only paid 3 for it.

What's wrong with marketing at a marked up price? So because I find something for 2 dollars that costs 100 I should sell it for 2? Would you honestly act like a chump yourself and resell it for what you paid for it even though its worth more??? this is basic 101 stuff here - if you think the product should be sold for how much it was bought for and not what its value is - you are dead wrong..

the last thing i'm doing is running and crying - i've replied to every comment on here with reason and common sense, but there seems to be a big lack of it here.

who was i trying to screw over? he asked me for a price and i gave him one - its a reasonable price, 150 less than either of the links you posted, its brand new. If he didn't like it - he could A. say something about it himself, B. not buy it. Is he your bitch that you are looking over him? I didn't try to rip anyone off - he asked for a price and i gave it to him. Don't like it? Fuck off.
you didn't tell me to go and ask on a dakota board? "Why don't you go to the DAKOTA forum ?" gee sorry, it sure came off like that...

what do you mean ebay, no warranty, possible fucked up?? Its bought STRAIGHT FROM BE COOL. Would you like me to take the shipping tag and staple it to your forehead so you could read the shipping addy? This isn't a no brand radiator.. There is warranty on it, and its not fucked up - like you said yourself, its for a different year. Again - why are you taking offence in this?? I said 500 bucks. If he likes it he'll buy it, if not - he won't.. I didn't try and scam anyone, so STFU and quit trying to make it look like I did.

yeah, some of the members are real bright.. the reason a fan doesn't fit on the rad outside of a vehicle is because its going into a different vehicle.. We have a darwin candidate right here....
look, i am not crying or whining here, but if i see someone is being a turd i will set them straight.
You yourself don't seem to have an issue with me (from what i can tell), you're just pissy because i marked up the rad. 200 bones and told ur buddy i'll sell it for that.. and there's no need to be pissy - its still a decent price, noone is ripping or ripped anyone off, so why continue on with the BS?

A Darwin candidate? Yeah, that's definitely life-threatening.
Look pinhead, you couldn't figure out which way is up.
That's called a "fitment" problem.
Take your frankenstein "dak" shadetree mechanic arts & crafts project somewhere else.

So your telling me you don't have the sense to ask people with more experience than you for tips when your trying to get something going? That was over a year ago, and I do have a pretty damn good job so go fuck yourself :fist:
so how is 500 not reasonable? they retail around a grand. If you ask me, 500 is very reasonable.. like i said, its worth more than what it sold for, and I'm not a fool to sell it for 1/3rd the price. Good luck trying to get one from the guy -
