The tractor's original radiator, 3112868R9x, leaks, has been repaired several times unsuccessfully. Have been looking for a replacement without success so far. Bates Corp. is the only source I have found that even acknowledges the existence of this OEM part number (other than Case/IH of course) but has none in stock and apparently won't for about 6 months or so. Case/IH claims no stock worldwide. So the tractor is currently out of commission which isn't good because the engine was just rebuilt and it runs great!
Tractor is a 1969 model, s/n B006696, diesel, made in England.
Here are my questions:
1: Has anyone found a 3112868R94 radiator recently, either new or used-serviceable or even used-repairable, and if so, where was it found?
2: Has anyone ever replaced the OEM radiator with another non-OEM radiator, and if so, who supplied it, what was its part number, what modifications were required, etc?
Any other ideas or suggestions on resolving this problem would sure be appreciated.
