Question Radiatory Support Pads - Sizes

Did the 67-72 trucks come with different sized radiator mounting pads (rubber) and brackets? My '69 has a little two-row radiaor, but it seems like the side tanks are the same depth as a four-row radiator would have. Someone set me straight.

'94 F-150 from the "F word" company. I'll admit it...good truck. Sold what was left of it for $800 to a guy who came to pick it up at 11:00 PM with cash in hand. Hmm.
'79 Sierra Grande (Black) organ donor - perfect rebuildable 4-bolt 350 and a good TH350.
'76 Sierra Grande (Orange) - hate isn't too strong a word. Kid who bought it turned it into a hot rod.
'68 C-10 R.I.P. - Dad's old truck...too far gone to resurrect.
'59 C-50 - with hoist. Truck is gone, wife isn't. Nuff said.

Re: Radiatory Support Pads - Sizes

Nope, 4-row radiators are bigger. I changed out my plugged 2-row for a 4-row and had to get new brackets and pads. For the Installation I had to notch the radiator support on the bottom as well to clear the brackets.

Re: Radiatory Support Pads - Sizes

Where did you buy the bigger set - did it come as a set?

LMC, or any of the site vendors should have them sold as a set I believe
