I have a 98 3L with 118k miles. I want to replace the water pump as a preventative measure. Should I replace the radiator too?

spark plug wires
When searching online I found 3 different part numbers for Motocraft plug wires for the 3 ltr v6. Couldn't find out what the difference was besides price. Does anyone know the difference?
