I've been looking around for a FMIC for my teg and I came across this one with "mounting tabs" and I was wondering if I just drill a short bolt into these and connect with an L-bracket or something. Please let me know.

anyone?

 

your pick didnt come up for but I always try and mount it in three section ....I dont think there is any correct way as long as it's secure and functioning

 

pics fixed

 

LOTS of duck tape and velcro. jk. I was looking at that exact intercooler. I think your supposed to drill and tap those mounting locations and then use L brackets. anyway yeah what you said.

 

that looks like a thick piece of metal to drill into, from the looks id just weld the L brackets onto those tabs

 

yeah i think welding a bracket on there is your only solution

It's the best solution anyways.

 

i think welding L brackets to the top would be the best. that's what i did too. i like that IC. where did u find it?

 

ebay.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...%3AIT

 

I popped holes in the bottom of the bumper support with a torch and then welded nuts in the holes on the bumper support got some bolts and bolted the cooler right up..

thats what i did! accept i drilled holes.. i used nuts similar to the ones pictured.

I drilled a hole big enough for the 'nut' part and tack welded the washer part to the unibody.

grabbed some L shaped aluminum from the hardware store and made some brakets. I just scribbed where i wanted them and brought the IC and brakets to a shop to tig weld them on. looks clean and works great.
