Well a little update. I went to the junk yard this afternoon, and after looking at every bronco 2, ranger, and explorer, I pulled a radiator out of a 1991 ford explorer. Got it for $45, looks brand new and in fact was a replacement radiator as it has replacement stickers on it. It still had coolant in it which I found out after pulling the lower radiator hose LOL. Coolant drained out a nice bright green so that should be a good sign that the radiator isn't contaminated, also I removed the radiator cap so at least it was still covered so nothing was getting into the radiator. I'm guessing by the way it compares to the radiator currently in my B2 that the one in it now is also an explorer radiator. At least I got one that I know will work, and I can mount it with the brackets over the top of it or with the bolts that go under the top radiator support I took all the fasteners so I can do it either way. Also got an almost new air filter, and oil breather cap as well. Total cost of everything including some parts that a kid needed that went with me that's been working on my B2 came to $68.
Thanks everyone as always for your knowledge. Also, forgot to mention as soon as I got home I did the radiator test as described above, mainly to rinse it out good. Radiator drained almost instantly and didn't have any measurable water pour out after flipping it upside down.
