Changing radiator core support

Looking under my truck the other day, I noticed that my radiator core support is pretty much rotted through. The bottom of the radiator does not look so hot either. Over the summer I will be saving money and checking local junk yards for core supports and radiators.
Does anyone have any suggestions or tips for me? When everything is out I will put chassis saver from the cab forward ( It already has all new brake lines up front). I also need new light mounting hardware and lenses and will replace the radiator mount bushings. This will probably be a week or two project when I am out of work from Sept. to Jan. I hope everything last through the summer. I just want to start planning this project early. Hope i didnt jinx my self haha. Thanks.
