Well then, the test ride is done and everything checks out\u2605
\nThere’s a round bracket on it! I didn’t notice that.
 
\n
 
This oil cooler moves around quite a bit . . . .
\nYou’ll need a lower bracket.
\nDIY is pretty doable\u2605
\nBut did it fit as-is?
\nWithout some modification, the stock hose bend would be tight.
 
\n
 
The hose crimp section and the engine hanger weld nut section are
\nin contact\u2014boom.
\nThe hose gets a hole and goes “pssshhh.”
\nOnce I spotted it, I had to fix it.
 
\n
 
I made a crab clamp
 
\n
 
and fixed the lower side.
 
\n
 
With an ultra-low-profile bolt, it won’t contact the hose\u2605
 
\n
 
I secured the hose with an M5 and shrink tubing\u2605
\nCable ties can weaken from heat, so metal is the safe and secure choice!
\nI also bent the pipe to avoid contact.
\nWhen you put the muffler back on, always check for contact or you’ll get “pssshhh.”
\nCheck it out<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
