I'm after some ideas on where and how to mount a 96 fin oil cooler with thermo fan etc. I'm thinking of mounting it on the left side of the chassis between the left horn and the axel tube, but I'm a little worried about the clearance of the body (when mounted) and the axel tube / spring plate when slammed.

Any advice / pic's etc would be much appreciated.

I've got a few other ideas, but I thought I'd ask the question and learn from other ?

Thanks in advance

Hi

I saw this on German Look, I'm sure it would be OK with a stone guard.

BTW I just ordered a fan switch for about $38 to switch an oil cooler fan on at 97C and off at 92C.

When I get it I will give the part number and brand if your interested.
