Got the radiator, hoses, and fan installed. My brother smashed into a tree, and had replaced the hood, radiator, and support before I inherited the truck. The AC condensor was smashed and he had simply removed it. I went ahead and removed the rest of the plumbing and the compressor rather than fixing it cause, money. I bought an idler that fits where the compressor used to sit. Got it from NAPA for about $39. About the last major piece to put back on at this point was the distributor.
The fan clutch got destroyed when he hit the tree, and my brother had installed the hard mounted fan and I guess the fan shroud was smashed too. I never saw the shroud laying around anywhere when I loaded up the truck. I plan on eliminating that hard mount fan and installing a couple electric fans, but I am using the hard mount fan for now cause, money.
