1973 LN600 Radiator

I need to replace the radiator in this 73 F600, (edit: LN600) it has a V8 Gas motor and the VIN isN60EV055254--- It is a downflow radiator, cap on one side, off set outlets, the odd thing about this one is there is a metal bracket on the top middle that has about an 1 1/2 hole in it for a stabilizer bar that runs back to the firewall. Thanks

N60 would be an LN600, not an F600.

Engine code E = FT series 361 2v.

Which one matches your truck?

Have you had it looked at to see if it can be rodded out, cleaned up, resealed?

Outfits like this have radiators. You may need to match one up from a slightly different model.

Nothing odd about that hole, all L models have that setup, even the diesel models, with flip up hood and no core support that bar keeps the radiator from flopping back and forth.
The L800 gas models I've worked with had cross flow radiators, we should have on from a 82 429 truck in the shop, swapped the cab and hood onto a diesel chassis.
