FYI another option

Someone knows how to weld. Looks like Georges has a wider Y making it EZer to fit up though.

too much info clouding my brain.....

Is this something that you only need if you ride super tight technical stuff in hot weather - I've never experienced a leak or overheating issue where I live and the type of riding that I do. I have read several posts on this item, but not sure I'm convinced I need it.

cheap insurance for trail failures and anti DNF measure...basic bullet proofing

This might actually work better, but it's not a "Y"
Blue Tee
If you have a buddy who wants a "T" and you want a "Y", this could save you money.
Buddy kit
Any of these would actually fit easier than the one I used. I had to several "custom" hoses to get ti to fit right.

I have the GFBN one from these guys installed......which ever size one fit the hoses (I don't remember off hand). I used this one on my 06TE450 as well. this for another option.

I just gave Hall's 20 of these to test. T0-12 GFBN (glass filled black nylon). Should solve any over heating issues, without buying an expensive "T" or "Y". They are rated for coolant and automotive applications, and have to be stronger than the polypropelene T's the Husky's come with. Rated up to 400+ degrees.

Although not as light as the nylon or aluminum these potable water fittings are bullet proof being made of brass.
You can pick them up at your local hardware store.
Even a normal 1/2" copper tee fits snug less ribs.

A 5$ part that works just as good over a 30$ part, sure I'll nickel nose all I can. You must have money growing off of trees.

And as far as the "Y" flowing better.... If your coolant system is properly filled how big of an issue can it be? Good sales pitch but i'm not buying.

And by the way, I ride a 2 stroke so I did the research for my buddies at the shop.

Never mind the cheap T fitting. What I need is a cheap replacement radiator.

The shop welded the crack, but the crack either was longer than they thought or it immediately crept up a little higher than it was. I just got it back this evening, welded a little higher. That row is staring to look like a slag pile, but if it holds this time all will be well. If not, I think I will have to pawn something and just shell out for a new radiator.

have you tried sending it to Mylers?
