Ken
I assume you're talking about a trans cooler...I don't suppose you have a picture??? <g>
I'd go look at possible locations, but its 90* with 78% humidity...today is a theory day !
Thanks Ken

I do not have a picture but here is a picture of Blaine's lower radiator guard installed on a GMC.

Just picture a trans cooler mounted on the inside of the guard. Blane makes them with room to bottom mount a vertical cooler or in my case I have mine just mounted on stand-offs to the angled surface of the cooler. You can get those stand-offs for mounting coolers at most auto parts stores for a few of dollars. They are just round plastic discs about the size of a quarter, or should I say "looney", and they have something like a cable tie going through the center of them to tighten them down.

Here is a set that is square instead of round.

Ken,
I am not too sure these mounts should be used. They are likely to damage the radiator tubes, particularly the brass ones and the fins.
