36 hood/radiator support rod bracket at radiator brazed or solde

Is the bracket that the radiator/hood support rod bolts to at the radiator end (two of them, one on each side of the top of the radiator) stuck by soldering or brazing? One of mine is lifting a bit and I need to fix it. I guess the trick is to do it without damaging the tank part of the top of the radiator.

Thanks,

Rebecca

Soldering is the process.

Thanks, I was not sure that solder would be strong enough but I am glad to hear that the bracket is attached by solder because it will take less heat to fix it. (don't want to damage the tank). I should be able to gently melt it with a propane torch.
