Hey everyone I have a 93 chevy k1500 5.7L. I got a brand new radiator for the truck and the only one that I can ever find that had engine oil and transmission oil cooling lines is a bit thicker and wider than the one i'm replacing it with. Now I did get the new one in but it was a bit of a pain but none of the hoses are stressed out by trying to fit around this larger radiator BUT I'm trying to find larger rubber radiator mounts for the upper and lower and i'm having a hard time finding that and also the radiator upper fan shroud doesn't really fit SO. What style and year for chevy had a larger radiator than the basic 1500? So that way I can find an upper fan shroud, radiator brackets, and rubber mounts.
also the radiator size is a 34in
Well good luck on that one it's so old even if you found a model that had that size odds are GM no longer would sell the parts or Stock them. Now you've gone through a lot of trouble and got a bad part but if you want to modify it you wouldn't even need to shroud I would put an electric fan on the radiator they work better than the mechanical ones anyway and with a fan mounted behind it you wouldn't need the shroud anymore.
Thanks Scotty I was thinking to do that just not sure if it can be doable.
