Radiator Relocation?

I recently blew my engine due to clogging my radiator with mud and therefore overheating resulted. i now have a new engine in my 94 explorer and was wondering what i could do to prevent mud from clogging my radiator in the future. relocating it seems like a big project and i want to know if there is an easier way to get passed this problem

Some of the guys in the Offroad & 4x4 Forum have installed electric fans which can be switched off right before they dive into water/mud; not sure how much it helps tho.

Welcome to FTE!

Easy solution,

Stay out of the thick mud,

or, clean it immediately you are clear of the mud.

It wont overheat while you are submerged.
