Yes it will fit, I'm running a 34" rad and 05 fans in my 99 Not sure what the price would be from a junk yard, but you can get a brand new one from the radiator barn dot com for an excellent price

Yep, it'll fit fine. If you look at the upper rad support the bolt holes are already there.

Sorry to hear that Skeet...been running mine for over 6 or so years now without any problems knock on wood. There's a few guys on here running their radiators without any problems...any part can fail at any given time as we all know, but it sucks when a new part takes a dump on ya and takes out even more expensive parts in the process

Oh BTW, 07 Z71, I shot you a PM

Do you have the Efans that go to that 34" radiator? Looking for a set myself.

This is good to know. How about the hoses? Get them for about a 2005 with a 34 inch radiator or will the stock hoses still work? Seems like the top hose potentially could but seems like the bottom hose would come up short. I'm wanting to do the 34 inch rad and efan swap as well. Sick and tired of listening to my fan clutch working its butt off to try and keep that ice cold engine cold after a cold start and anytime I get on it.
