Default I replaced my radiator

The truck was getting hot when towing, so I had to replace the radiator. I looked for an upgrade and came up with this.

It dropped right in, but the shroud bolts were a bit long, and the drain take a 3/8" pipe plug.

I'll post results after I tow w it.

Here are a few pictures.I replaced my radiator-imageuploadedbytapatalk1340341123.402363.jpgI replaced my radiator-imageuploadedbytapatalk1340341135.927276.jpg

I hope. I haven't had a chance to pull with it yet, but it's a lot thicker than the stock rad and the al tanks should help too.

Where'd you get it from? Couldn't find Griffins that fit our trucks anywhere.

I ordered it from Summit. It was cheaper than going direct.
