New question, Is it all right to mount my new aluminum radiator on top of the forward crossmember, on rubber pads of course ? I'm going to need all the height I can get with a 19" tall radiator. Some pics of this would really help, thanks.

I did that with my truck. I put the radiator on some rubber pads and used 2 pieces of angled aluminum to hold it so the radiator wouldnt go into the fan. I'll try to get some pictures for you on tuesday when i work on it.

Got the radiator in at last. Still need to mount my trans cooler and run the lines and I'll be close to having the LUV back on the road soon.
