radiator
Ok l had a rad out of a 79 f150-460 that is a mid mount 4 core. It fit the original core support of mu 62 uni. I just had to cut the top of the crossmember out so it could go down enough. That radiator is not rebuildable so l need to find a new one. I cannt find a replacement locally or online that l can afford but, l see some aluminum 3 and 4 row on ebay. Has anyone used any of these. I am running a mild 460 with electric fans and just want to buy right the first time.
Thanks Steven |

Thanks Steven This looks nice, appears to be well made and has a lifetime warranty. Hope that helps a little.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/1960-61-62-63-64-65-66-Ford-F-100-Truck-Champion-Cooling-Systems-3-Row-Radiator-/321102259297?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make%3AFord%7CModel%3AF-100&hash=item4ac32fa461&vxp=mtr |
I ordered the four row alum but it was back ordered so l didnt want to report back on it.

I havent driven my truck since 1988 but l, its closer to being on the road then it has been in years. So l figured a few weeks was no big deal. so l emailed them on friday and they emailed me back saying container was in but wasnt sure if my rad was in the shipment or not. Just venting l gues. Will update if l get it this week or hear anything back. |
Finally got the rad and it is installed in the truck. The brackets were a little different but l made it work. It is about 8 inches shorter then factory 4 row that l had from the 79 ford. I have not put water in it yet l have been messing with the fenders and such. It does look like a descent rad for the money.
