many thanks

 

bump i need ideas for mounting mine too

 

L-brackets and self tap screws are the best way to go

 

I would use nuts and bolts instead of self tappers.

 

how do you know exactly howto center it? doesn't it have to be perfectly measured so that the intake side and exhaust side pipes all match up evenly?

 

i drilled holes in the bumper support and put a bolt and washer through the mounting bracket on the top of the IC

 

I just put a dozen zipties on em. Im dead serious too.

 

i drilled holes thru the tabs and twist tied them around the bumper beam also

 

pics? just for the hell of it

 

here u go hope it helps, Do it right the first time around, Zip ties may work, but wont last to long.

Used a jack to move it into place


bent a piece of steel drilled it and bolted it to the rebar+ IC


Used to sell tapping screws on the bottom.

 

i welded 2 tabs on the bottom and bolted it to the lower rad support then welded 1 and bolted it to the pice in the cenbter of the rad support where the horn is....

 

i tack welded two tabs with a pre-drilled hole on the bumper support. 1st center the intercooler under the bumper support then mark the two ends of the intercooler, then make some brackets out of some tagboard then out of steel, drill out where the tapped holes are on the ic and there you have. ill take some pics this weekend

 

heres what i did

 

pics of mine....idk if this helps or not, but here goes
