thats only the top brackets, the bottom was easy i just used about 1/4 thick steel plate to make up 2 brackets that bolt between the caster rod bracket and chassis and the cooler sits perfectly on top of those.
TK and Andymac: Thats pretty much what I had in mind. Will look the same as TK's but with flatbar instead of the RHS. Already got some holes I used to mount the front radiator fans off.

Turns out, far too much has been written about great men and not nearly enough about morons

It sits ontop of the lower part of radiator support, i cut little holes for the two know bolt things to sit in, on top its just bolted through the top.

Yeah, mine is pretty much massive overkill, you could hang a bloody gearbox off of it - I just used what fell to hand, which happened to be RHS & square tube.
The bottom mounts are about 5mm thick rhs steel!
If your planing to drive this on the road and enjoy it, id suggest a second opinion, someone with a history in Australian Rally or Fink River . If your just playing dyno comps. Then ok
Just keep pushing the cooler back until there is something above it, drill holes and done :p
p.s Just noticed a post by TK thats similar to yours isnt it?? if so couldnt you just hang a bracket off the underside of the bonnet catch to pick up on the plate on the top of your cooler??
I wouldn't recommend sex, drugs or insanity for everyone, but they've always worked for me...
The top plate sits along way forward. I was supposed to cut the outlets off today and jam it in to see what its close to, but fuckers who say shit will be ready to be picked up on Monday, then when you rock up on Friday and they forgot about it really piss me off and waste my time.
Tomorrow arvo is the new plan.
