I know there isn't a right or wrong way to install (or maybe there is). Just would like to know or get idea's from people that have done this particular install. Is there a prefabbed bracket I can buy? Or do I simply bolt this as close to the front as I possibly can? Using isolation mounts of course.
Also, how is the bottom shroud mounted? I have a few ideas of how I want to mount... just would like to see what others have done. Thanks! Attached image(s)

I've got the Patrick Motorsport / Setrab auxiliary front cooler on my big 4, and finding it takes a long time to reach operating temperature, at least when it's cool outside. I've been told the oil thermostat that came with the kit will only block 90% of the flow. So I'm thinking about stuffing a bunch of shop towels in the front opening! Or is there a better solution?

Maybe some magnetic sheet material like you use for signs on cars. Cut to size and stick on as needed. |
