    For sure. It’s either fixing something or breaking something it seems like over here. My buddy just replaced every pulley, the alternator and water pump trying to track down a squealing bearing and then today his caliper seized up o_O

    No you don't, if you build them yourself. Just space the brake line off the frame a bit with some washers.I had to get a little creative with some of the mounts on the drivers side with the ebrake cable in the way, but its doable. 100% no drill, no weld rock sliders.0113181519a.jpg 0116180933a.jpg

    My driver side just broke today. Warmer temps so I opened the side window and the dang thing broke. Thankfully I have a replacement from when I did the passenger side.

    Those mounts slip over the frame, then bolts go across the top. "Clamp on" if you will. I didnt notice the frame being squeezed too hard or crushed, as the bolts dont need to be tightened with an impact wrench or anything. I just used my normal sized 9/16" wrench and tightened them down as tight as I could manage with some blue loctite. It was a little frustrating to figure out spots for the drivers side mounts but it's doable.

    Look at the swap thread I posted, mine is for a 5speed, if it’s auto the shroud will hang lower. You probably could use the shroud type I have with more trimming for the trans lines and it would not
    hang so low

    damn. I ordered the wrong one then if you still have to trim. Oh well. Filament isn't that far off so should be easy to make work.

    Kinda seems like if you got the shortest shroud it wouldn't fit the v6 fan at all.

    My shroud is 1997,5 speed, fits almost perfectly with a few cuts

    yeah I ordered that size of shroud vs cutting up my auto one.

    Looks like it'll fit good and just needs a few holes drilled to clear things.

    I swear after you get the Champion radiator and see how it’s built compared to the stock radiator, the stock radiator will look and feel like a piece of junk.
