[QUOTE="smc4wd, post: 1481210, member: 18999"] Thanks! Thank you too, Jeremy Aaron gets all the credit... He's spent a few hours on it and he wants to spend lots more. All day was spent working on the Jeep again today, but the console had to sit second fiddle to the radiator. Which again, giving credit where credit is due, Aaron really brought out some quality workmanship. Although today's first step was clean.... we knew where tools were, but having a clean work space was getting harder to find. So the first 1/2 an hour spent straightening up. [IMG]http://www.nw-wheelers.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=334&pictureid=2593[/IMG] Then, "a cutting we will go"... We measured out and cut that 1/8th inch aluminum to fit just above the fins. [IMG]http://www.nw-wheelers.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=334&pictureid=2591[/IMG] Test fit [IMG]http://www.nw-wheelers.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=334&pictureid=2592[/IMG] It's hard to really notice, but we picked up some aluminum C-channel to border and enclose the sides. It was designed to get riveted onto the frame of the radiator, then bolted (or unbolted if need be) onto the bracket. We also cut out the circle to fit the fan. [IMG]http://www.nw-wheelers.com/forum/picture.php?albumid=334&pictureid=2596[/IMG] Silicone and foam seals aren't even seen in this picture, but the fan shroud is completely enclosed...
