Now remember this radiator is going into a 90 Ranger Body that is on top of the 90 Bronco.

Will that fit in the little ranger ?.

I, too, have an F-250 radiator in my 84 Bronco. This is the way to go, but I think it will be too tall for the 90 Ranger. You can either remote-mount the radiator in the bed like the mud boggers do, or get an aftermarket aluminum one from like Fluidyne that fits the Ranger core support. An electric fan would help alot, too. The 351W needs a big radiator!

Thanks Randy, I think your right about that, I will check around some of the radiator companys and see what they got, just did not want to put it in the back, got friends that like to put things back there, Beer Bottle smiling
