I have my original copper radiator going back in my 59. I have not been able to find a set of Corbin clamp pliers that will open the clamp far enough to go on. The AIM says all 58-60 use Corbin clamps. Can anyone steer me in the right direction? TY Jeff

Re: Corbin Clamps
Sounds to me like you have a clamp one size too small. The pliers are engineered to open the correct clamp up the needed distance so that they slip over the sealing ridge and then when the clamp closes it provides the correct tension to seal the hose. What you need is either someone to give you what the correct size clamp is or provide the ID of the correct clamp before the clamp is installed.Bill Strobel
