I may have to do pusher fans inbetween the radiator and condenser. Before I took it apart, the truck never would get over 185 because of that huge radiator. I should be okay this way, just monitor it.

Yeah, I have pretty much went with all oem motorcraft stuff. Moog suspension parts.

I think 6 bolts were 50 bucks. Considering it holds your whole hub on to the knuckle, well worth it.
