Installing a riff raft 180 degree thermostat and its quite a bit longer than stock is that correct? No bodies answering my calls overthere. Also the gasket goes on top right?

 

No, I think you need a short stem thermostat with the 95. I think the long stem ones are for 96-97's iirc.

 

Correct. The long stem 180* thermostat will not work in your '95. If you want to switch to the late model style thermostat, you need to install a '96-up water pump.

 

Riffraff has a new web site - kind of cool. Anyway it only shows 1 thermostat for the 94-97 OBS trucks which I'm sure is a mistake. Give them a call and leave a message as I'm sure they will get back to you in a timely manner.

 

ya so i finally got a hold of them and there old website was screwy and somehow the super duty thermostats were in with the obs area so they sent me the wrong one.
anywho they sent me a return sticker to exchange it with the correct one so i just put it back together and wait till they get me the right one. kind of a pain

thanks for the quick info everyboby

 

also clay said they only carry the motorcraft thermostat now cause they were havin trouble with 203 degree tstat

 

Does it look like this? This is a long stem thermostat in a short housing.

 

Yup that's what it looks like
