I just upgraded the radiator in my '93 Explorer. My manual transmission model came with a single row radiator.
I installed a radiator from a '93 with an automatic transmission, which happens to be a 2 row radiator.
A couple things needed to be changed.
1. The fan shroud needs to be replaced with a thinner unit from an automatic transmission equipped Explorer.
2. The lower radiator hose needs to come from an automatic transmission equipped Explorer as well.
Besides that it's a direct bolt in replacement. Don't worry about the openings for the automatic transmission cooler, It's not necassary with manual trannys.
