The Radiator Core Support for 1988–1993 Chevy and GMC C/K OBS pickup trucks is a premium, OE-style restoration component developed from all-new tooling by Auto Metal Direct. Engineered specifically for GMT-400 platform trucks and SUVs, this core support restores the factory-correct structure that positions the radiator, condenser, hood latch, and front sheet metal exactly as original. Designed for classic truck restoration parts projects where accuracy matters, this AMD component delivers the fit, form, and strength expected of a true OE-quality replacement.
Manufactured to match original GM specifications, this radiator core support is a direct replacement for a wide range of factory GM part numbers and is correct for V8 equipped applications. AMD’s commitment to precision stamping and dimensional accuracy ensures proper alignment across the entire front clip, helping maintain consistent body gaps and correct hood-to-fender relationships. This is especially important on OBS trucks where front-end alignment is critical to both appearance and long-term durability.
Constructed from heavy-gauge steel, the core support mirrors the original design used across late-1980s and early-1990s Chevy and GMC pickups and SUVs. Every mounting location, contour, and reinforcement point is carefully reproduced to integrate seamlessly with surrounding sheet metal. This makes it an ideal solution for replacing damaged, rusted, or weakened originals commonly found on high-mileage or northern-climate trucks.
As part of AMD’s continued expansion into the OBS GMT-400 market, this radiator core support reflects the same premium standards applied to AMD’s classic truck and muscle car sheet metal. Unlike refurbished or modified originals, this is a brand-new component developed to meet modern manufacturing tolerances while preserving the authentic OE-style appearance restorers expect.
This core support replaces multiple GM factory part numbers and is designed to service most models within the listed year ranges, excluding V6-specific radiator core supports. AMD has engineered this version using the later-style 1994–1998 hardware configuration, aligning with commonly available factory-style components used on later GMT-400 trucks.
Unlike many aftermarket radiator supports currently on the market that are advertised as a “one-size-fits-all” solution for 1988–1998 OBS trucks, AMD’s #350-4088 radiator support is a vehicle-specific, OE-style reproduction engineered exclusively for 1988–1993 GMT-400 front-end architecture. Universal supports often compromise fitment by blending early and late OBS design features, which can lead to misaligned headlights, uneven hood gaps, incorrect grille positioning, and unnecessary installation work. AMD’s premium support is built from the ground up using new tooling that follows original GM contours, mounting locations, and structural geometry, delivering significantly better front-end alignment and panel fit. For builders and restorers who care about accuracy, AMD’s radiator support provides a level of precision and quality that generic aftermarket alternatives simply cannot match.
Auto Metal Direct is a team of true car guys with years of experience in sheet metal reproduction, car restoration and paint/body work. We believe that quality is not subjective! Our mission is to provide the best customer experience for the Ford, Mopar and GM classic car markets - both in products and in service.
Our panels are made from proper gauge steel and include all correct-as-original clips, tabs, flanges, bends and seams. Each time a prototype body panel comes off of a new tooling, we test fit it on a car. The marked up prototype is then used to change and improve the tools, and a new prototype is produced. This procedure might be repeated multiple times but, once the part is finally approved, you can be assured of a quality part.
