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.

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?

Re: Radiatory Support Pads - Sizes
LMC, or any of the site vendors should have them sold as a set I believe
