Oreilly's carries a new 4 row for $179. You can get nice aluminum ones off Ebay for even less than that including shipping to your door. Or maybe have your old one rodded out by a good rad shop. Should not cost much.

Any good radiator shop should be able to order an exact replacement radiator for your truck. My local shop supplied me with one (ordered) for $230.00, and the radiator was of very good quality. May cost a little more being shipped out of the States, but don't settle for less just because a radiator shop cannot supply you with the right radiator.

Radiators through 80 will fit. The difference is 73-80 use a straight lower hose bib that doesn't curve upward slightly like 67-72 ones did. Hose fits fine though, just put something on the edge of the framerail so the hose doesn't rub a hole through itself.

I think the later model radiators (73 and newer) are a little taller. So the upper hold down mounts won't fit right.

No, they fit just like stock other than the lower hose thing I mentioned.
