1962 4wd radiator support
Opened up a new f100 aftermarket radiator surround to replace the rotted 4WD radiator support. The catalog descriptions say: “Not 4WD.”
Side by side comparison showed otherwise. Overall shape, hole sizes, locations, alignments, and cutouts, appear to match the OEM 4WD surround.
I don’t recognize any significant assembly differences.
There seems to be a slight difference in gauge thickness too; close but slightly thinner. The reproduction thickness is about .002 thinner using a mic.
FYI for those that need to replace their 4WD radiator support.

C2TZ-16138-G .. Radiator Support / Reproduced
1961/64 F100/250 2WD/4WD / 1961/66 F350/600 / 1965 F100/250 4WD / 1966 F250 4WD
What radiator support did you buy? Only the following are different:
Not the same: 1965 F100/250 2WD & 1966 F100 4WD is different. 1966 F100/250 2WD is different.

There's ONLY one radiator support for your truck: C2TZ-16138-G see applications in post #2.
If the support says not for 4WD, this info is either wrong, the source sent you the wrong support, or you ordered the wrong support.
