I would assume a good 4 core from the junkyard and a electric fan. Is it getting hot all the time or just when it's full of mud

call day motorsports and get one. They are 199. good aluminum radiator. Im running the biggest one they got in a full size extended cab with rockwells 54s and 505 bbc. I built a shroud and run one electric fan.

Make sure fans are shrouded good, alot of people have the right parts but if they can't draw air through the radiator it is all for nothing

If all this does not fix the heating problem, try this it will work. Install the radiator in the front, install a second radiator in the bed, hook them in series put a fan on both. I had a jeep that I mudraced and used it as a spray rig. I only used the rear fan, it never got over 185 even in 100 degree heat with one fan.
