Hey guys,
Ok so engine is seated and mounted. Got a 4.0L explorer rad but with the original pulley system (std rotation wp with dual belt crank) Im finding it near impossible to get this rad to fit.
Using the stock mounts for rad it hits the nose of the water pump and thats without the pulley even on! I've tried banging away at the support to make some room for it to go further forward but I cant see this thing fitting between the rad support in any way.
Can someone give me a heads up on where to cut or how to make this thing fit without major fabrication or losing safety in the core support? And then I need room to run 2 e-fans... damn these small rangers!
And I know pictures would help but I forgot to take some of the actual support last time I was at the shop.
Thanks.
