My concern is the transfer case and 4wd selectors. The bottom of the radiator is pretty exposed to sticks and wildlife. Diffs are pretty robust they should take care of themselves.
Hi Shannon,
As a matter of interest, ATW does a radiator splash guard for the 2008 to current Isuzu and 2009 to current Fuso FG's but nothing for the earlier models.....maybe the FG84 ATW Splashguard would adapt to yours though. We found a lot of the vehicles in the mining industry , particularly those underground really suffer from mud clogged radiators and intercoolers so we have a heavy duty tray that bolts up under that area and works really well without noticeably decreasing cooling airflow......I mean so clogged they have to throw the radiator in the bin after about 3 months!!! Some of the mud undergound sets like concrete.....so anyway, that's why we developed those.
BTW These trucks actually get stuff all airflow unless the fan has cut in anyway.
As for the Rampover angles and transfer case protection.....I guess if you're still running standard wheels and springs, you'll be lower than I'm used to but it might be handy to protect the leading edge of the handbrake drum backing plate ......but I've never heard of anyone holing a transfer case yet.....I guess you're more worried about getting hooked up are you? I've grounded out on the centre tailshaft bearing a couple of times but that was with a 649 with standard wheels and a very stretched wheelbase.
Regards
John
