It looks to me like the radiator should come out, in order to have enough space to get to the pump. I should remember, because I built the truck, but that was about 20 years ago, and I don't remember. Working over those huge old front fenders is not easy for an old guy. I just want to make it as easy as possible.

And then you will have room to work without scraping your knuckles on the radiator or damaging the radiator if a wrench slips. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2018 Posts: 760 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Aug 2018 Posts: 760 | Thanks, that's what I did. It looked as if it would be very difficult to do, if even possible, with the radiator in place.
