I'd be interested in knowing what the fan-to-radiator clearance is. As I mentioned previously, I had a tough time changing belts because of fan-to-radiator clearance. I bought the current clutch a few years ago, and it may well be that it is the wrong one, based on what I'm seeing here. Maybe we should make a library of what part numbers work for what year truck, because we have to rely on people who are young enough to be our grandchildren to look up parts for us, when we go to the parts store. Though for what is worth, one parts store I used to go to has a guy about my age that isn't sure which way is up, most of the time.
