I thought I would give everyone a heads up on the ebay radiators called "engineered cooling products" "no 3-row gimmicks". This radiator is not a direct bolt in, even though it says it's for a 70-73 maverick. I had to notch out my strut rod brace or crossmember so the drain cock would clear. The lower hose fitting is larger than the top, I had to stretch the hose over, might not last long. The radiator is also too narrow, it bolts up on one side but will not make the other, I used some large washers to clamp the other side in place. The right side tranny line also hits the cross member, as does the lower rad hose. I had to oblong (flatten) that inlet so the rad would sit a touch lower. On the plus side it is well built and has a good tranny cooler built in. The car is also running nice and cool, but it is NOT a bolt in. Mike
It's guys like you that make this board so good, thanks for the info. This information will help someone on this board and save them some time too.
thanks for the headsup... but with all that going on...why didn't you get one that...is...a bolt in. they are posted all over this board?...Maverick 339AA ...:Handshake...
Truth be told, I'm not on here that often, so I didn't know about them. Wish I had though, but I have mine working now. Just warning the rest of us because some times as I have learned, parts are advertised for a maverick, and the seller has no clue if it actually fits; he says the part numbers interchanged.....sure.
