Need help finding good radiator repair shop in Columbia SC

Recommended Posts

Hi I'm fairly new to the forum but the few times of used it I've got an excellent help from all the members. My 1997 Hawkins motorhome sprung multiple leaks from my radiator. I had been losing coolant slowly since Idaho and could not find the leak I pulled over to get a snack and it was pouring out from the top near I guess where the tank connects and also multiple pin holes throughout the radiator itself. it never ran hot which I'm grateful for but now I am in dire need of finding a radiator shop near Columbia or in Columbia that can help me. My Hawkins is built on a Gillig bus frame with a caterpillar 3176 side radiator. roadside assistance towed me to a diesel mechanic in Columbia but I'm not sure if he knows much if anything about motorhomes in general, but especially radiators, and I am in need since I have three kids and  live in it full time. I'm a disabled veteran on a fixed income and I know it will cost me a pretty penny to have it repaired but I am asking anyone for advice to a good shop that's trustworthy and does quality work.

There is a old trick that works, pour a box of black pepper into radiator and it will stop leaks long enough to drive to a Shop. Linda did that in Alaska and drove back to Texas...saved over $6,000 in shipping charges!
