i'm not going to get in a pissing match on this forum because my time is worth more then that. the reason why i asked the follow up question Max is because i had previously owned a 93 GMC truck before this one and it had a built in ENGINE OIL COOLER on the left side of the rad, thus the reason for the question.
by the way Max i would never have degraded you or anyone else on here if you had been wrong. that's not the reason i asked the question. this is a great forum and there are a lot of great members on here ,like yourself, that take the time to answer questions for those who are less knowledgeable. i also try to contribute when i can as well, isn't that what this whole forum is about? have yourself a great day EH and have a couple of Canadian beers on me.

What's so unusual about that? Some GM trucks had both an engine oil cooler and a trans. cooler built into the radiator. Fittings for the trans. cooler on one tank, fittings for the oil cooler on the other tank. Never seen the same setup on a Ford though.

On my Lightning Ford lists it as an "Oil Cooler"...

i'm not that stupid guys and yes it had an engine oil cooler. the lines came from behind the oil filter to the left side (tank) of the rad and the tranny lines went to the right side.
as a matter of fact the farm truck that belonged to my father in law had to have both lines replaced on the engine oil cooler because they rusted thru. it was spitting ENGINE OIL all over the underside of the truck. he had a 1990 GMC half ton with the 305. not that unusal or uncommon.
let this one go guys, this horse has been beat to death already.
