Hello Folks! I need Your Help and Expertise. I want to Upgrade My Radiator in My 1998 Dodge Ram 1500 5.9L 2WD Sport EXT. CAB 1 Row To A Radiator from a 1998 Dodge Ram 3500 V-10 8.0L Gas 2 Row?! Thanks Sincerely:

 

Think I have seen this elsewhere... So, I will tell ya the same thing here, I told ya there, you will need adapters for the hoses, as the inlet/outlet on the V-10 radiator are larger than the V-8 fellers.

 

The V10 radiator should bolt into the same space as the V8 radiator or is the radiator support setup different on the V10 trucks??

 

I think they are both exactly the same. (radiator supports) This came up in another thread not so very long ago. (that's why I know the inlet/outlet are different size. )

 

I want to Give Thanks to all response to My Post. "God Bless". Sincerely:

 

There is a second set of holes in the support for the V10 radiator... it's a little wider.

 

What's the name of that company that will make temp port adapter for our radiator hoses? They probably can make those adapters.

 

Too much stuff to upgrade. Hoses, adapters, Shroud is a big one.
You better spend you money on this

Otherwise you'll spend more.

 

Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Was this a direct bolt-in swap for the factory radiator? Did you have to perform any modifications?

 

Direct bolt on. No other mods. Everything else fits great.
