Making room for 235 with stock waterpump. Yes I know there's a plate to do this also. But I wanted to do it this way. Also dropped down about 1 1/2" . Not done yet but going good. Stock radiator probably would have tucked underneath latch plate but this aftermarket radiator was 2" taller. Ordered for the truck and this is what I got. Must be heavy duty?

Moving the rad forward seems like a common alternative to installing an adapter plate and changing the pump. This one was done long before the adapter plate was available.
