GENERAL DESCRIPTION
G series trucks with 230 cu. in. engine, G series with
250 cu. in. engine and 3-speed transmission, P10 and
40 trucks and all T series trucks are equipped with
down-flow type radiators. All other models are equipped
with cross-flow type radiators. The cross-flow radiator
is similar to the conventional down-flow radiator except
it is mounted sideways in the vehicle and attached in the
conventional manner. Two retainers, one on each side at
the top, secure the radiator in position.
The 1968 radiators are of copper-brass construction.
All radiators (except P10 models) incorporate drain
cocks,
replacing drain plugs used at start of 1967
production.
This section covers the service procedures on all truck
radiator and grille assemblies. See Section 1A for air
conditioning component replacement, Section 14 for
bumper replacement and Section 11 for Front Sheet
Metal.
