Radiator Mounts

Can someone tell me the widths of the two different radiator mounts for our trucks? Mine measures 3 3/8" on the outside where it wraps around the radiator tanks. Is this the smaller or larger one of the two? These don't quite make it around my new radiator's tanks. If these already are the larger ones, has anyone widened these before?

Thanks!!

It sounds like you have the smaller ones as my 4 core radiator brackets are 3 5/8" on the inside. Outside dimensions are 4 1/8"
approximately. I don't know of anyway to stretch them outside of cutting and welding.

I would try to get the 4 core mounts.

JimK & FrenchBlue,
Thanks for the info!! That's good news. It sounds like the 4 core mounts should work pretty well.

Thanks again
