Hey guys so i just need a little info here about the fan shroud on a 01 yukon 4.8

Now i know the yukon has the option to install two size radiators. I recently changed out the what i can assume was the big radiator because when i put the other one in the screws went into the secondary holes and it was smaller by measurment.

Now my question to you is will the same fan shroud fit the smaller of the radiators because i was having trouble with fitment and couldnt get it on.

Why did you use a different radiator to begin with? Should have stayed with the stock one. If you insist on the different rad then you will have to adapt the shroud. The option radiator was not just because you could d either or, it was because of build codes and what is supposed to be in that vehicle.

There was a 28 inch radiator, and a 34 inch radiator. And they both have different sized fan shrouds to fit the radiator. You can upgrade to a 34" if you have the small radiator, but not vice versa. If your truck came with a 34" and you replace it with a 28" then you can (and most likely WILL) have overheating issues.

I am sure the build code dictates what radiator should be on that vehicle. basically the problem was created by James. So, James, stop doing that.
