Trying to switch out radiator took old one out and putting new one in. Got a problem fan is hitting upper trans. Line on new radiator? Ive put 2 different NEW radiators in and still same problem. Well put old one back in and fan isn't close to line, its like the new radiators aren't made the same somehow. Ive taken measurements and EVERYTHING is the same? Ive been working on this for 3 days I need help

They probably aren't made the same and are giving you the wrong one or their supplier isn't getting the correct rad. If it's the correct part then it shold line up correctly. Sometimes these are made for several cars and must be modified to fit. Maybe try another brand or if this is one on the cheap side upgrade it may be different.
