87 Rad Swap

[87xlt]

Hey I've got a 87 ranger, 2.9l manual truck. truck has a 3 inch body lift, and i was wondering, what rad will swap in fairly easily. I bought a 93 exploder rad 2 core from a junker, but its no-where near bolt in. Any one have a suggestion as to what other decently big rads will drop right in???

if the rad is not anywhere near fitting then you got the wrong rad. the 91-94 2 row rads only need the explorer lower hose to drop right in. with a 3 inch body lift you will need to either move the radiator or the fan shroud down to keep it from hitting the fan

Radiator

I put A two row in my 86 b2 bolted right in stays right on the bottom of normal but makes it tight for the fan
