    Cid...............I would say the radiator is about 1/2" to 3/4" too high.....kind
    of looks like mine on the first try..............pretty easy to lower............but I could be wrong.

    Thanks man!!

    in fact,I think you are right! what scared me

    just because the lower "hose" is touching the cross member..impossible to lower.. maybe I will need to change for other model

    but anyway I'm still with my fingers crossed! and praying!:D

    I really enjoyed this radiator.... 4 rows ..pretty well done...

    You've got the same radiator I have......................so if it fit mine it should fit yours..............yes it was a little tight!

    Mine is the same way, the hose just barely touches the cross member.
