The cross braces keep the front fenders square, I would NOT cut these
out. Instead drill four holes, probably about 2 inches below the
radiator support holes. Use long bolts with 2"-3" standoff washers to
provide clearance in front of the cross braces.

Subject: [oletrucks] Air conditoner condensor installation
I'm trying to install a condensor for an A/C unit that I just
purchased. My
truck(53 3100) has the original radiator with the cross supports bars
attached
to the front of the radiator frame. These cross bars are interfering
with the
installation of the a/c condensor. Has anyone done this installation and
will
it matter if I cut out the cross supports??
Thanks,
Wayne C.
By the way - Thanks for all the replies to my question about the intake
manifold water leak at the bolts. Looks like the concensus opinion is to
just
put some type of sealer on the bolts prior to re-installation.
