\nAll right, let’s keep moving forward.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\nWe’ve been asked to fabricate a cowl vibration damper. There’s nowhere to get a boss from at all\u2026<\/p>\n

Connecting the left and right cowls was ruled out due to installation hassle and appearance.
\nModifying the frame side is out of the question.<\/p>\n

After thinking it over, we decided to weld a boss to the nearest oil cooler to get one.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nWe bent it at 55 degrees and reinforced it with a solid rod. It’s lightweight and extremely strong.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nWe barelled it to improve the appearance since it looked plain. Of course, fasteners are used for mounting.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nIt’s fixed with a single M6 bolt to allow some flexibility.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\nWhether it’s a fit issue, the right and left sides differed in length by about 5 mm. It’s smarter to match the current state rather than adjust the lengths.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nWe got it locked down tight with a snap.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nSince we removed the oil cooler, we also completed an oil change at the same time.<\/p>\n
