Restricted Swinger

[one_dusty_hoot]

On the '87 FC(probably '88's and '89's as well) the radiator
and after cooler swing open approximately 40* to a welded stop
on the frame. The opening between the radiator and front sheet
metal measure 14 inches full open. Not a place for big guys and
quite restricted for smaller ones.

Does anyone know why there is this limitation. No transmission
cooling done at the radiator, it is at the ZF transmission.
Thanks,
