Hello,
Is it still possible to buy a new vertical oil cooler or are they no longer available. If available who supplies them.
Thank you
Tony

Re: 1070 S
Must be one of the rarest parts around. 1071 Bob made copies of the pipes so they may help?

Re: 1070 S
Repro brackets are also available

An original ARA167 cooler itself is very rare though, and upwards of £500 when they come up on eBay etc.
If you were handy with a TIG welder, you might be able to fabricate something based on a generic 11-row horizontal cooler.

Re: 1070 S
Those 7Ent cooler brackets are from me from a few years ago. Very hard to find decent coolers now, most have cracked side plates and/or leaking tanks. Nick Swift has been trying to fabricate a modern replacement for one of his customers but haven't heard from him for a while.
The problem is that the originals had 7 inch union centres and all the modern replacements are 6" 8" 10" union centres which won't fit unless you change the brackets and pipe layout. If you need a cooler you would be better off fitting the later type.
I don't have any brackets or pipe kits left.

Any chance you are going to make any more, I need 3 sets of pipes, and brackets for my oil coolers.1071bob wrote: ↑Sun May 31, 2020 10:27 pm Those 7Ent cooler brackets are from me from a few years ago.
