I am talking about the truck water radiator. It's not part of the kit.

Depends on what you already have in your truck. You can measure the width of your radiator.

My truck came stock with 28" radiator. I swapped to 34" after having a radiator damage. And I noticed a difference in temp. It became lower with the wider 34" radiator. Later I replaced the stock clutch fan with 05+ e-fans. Those will required 34" radiator anyway to fit.

So, it depends on where you live and what type e-fans you use.

See attached pic.

Did ur truck come stock with e-fans? If yes, then u already have 34" radiator.

Here is bigger picture of the 28" radiator. You can compare to yours without measuring. The 34" radaitor will not have enough space to run the cold pipes beween the radiator and the head lights.

2009 have good space to fit cold pipe on the sides of the radiator.

I've seen some pics for it on TrickPerf site.

You can pop the hood open and look from inside if you can fit 2.5-3" cold pipe on the sides of the radiator without the headlight interfering.

Your truck is Sierra not Chevy. Headlights size and location is slightly different than Chevy.

Last pic is for installed WG that I was referring to. See how the cross over pipe is far from the oil pan. It is tucked higher and closer to the bellhousing of the trans.
