Default rad & intercooler

hi chaps
my rad is leaking !
i have a 2wd saff will a 4wd rad fit ?
i also need some rad fans ! are they all the same on cossies ? or depending on what rad you fit.
also will a 4x4 intercooler just bolt straight onto a 2wd with no modification or pipework changes ?

Yes 4wd rad is 99% same, at least on pattern ones, no differenc eis mentioned and same part number.
All sierra co rad fans the same.
4wd i/cooler will just bolt on, but one bobbin on the underside of the i/cooler will not be in line with the hole in the top edge lip of the rad, although would imagine as this is different on 2wd and 4wd spacing is further apart on 4wd as cooler is slightly longer higher thicker, but nothing that can't easily be got around anyway.

NO probs matey, just post up or pm me anytime, I remembered on my sapphy(2wd) I rewelded the rad mount lug, sure it was either 22" or 31" apart centre hole to centre hole, so the 4wd intercooler bolted up to the rad.
