Bory Posted April 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Here's a look up at the radiator intake from under the truck. Got the cooling lines hooked up, had to cross them so they flow the correct direction thru the radiator notice the 1/2" cooling lines for the oil cooler. Quote Link to comment
