A few weeks ago i received the oil filter relocator and oil cooler kit from MAD motorsports and mr rpm. I originally only wanted just the oil filter relocator but figured since i relocated my radiator i had plenty of room for a small oil cooler and any bit of cooling for the 1000's seams like a plus.
My biggest concern is where am i going to mount the oil filter and cooler. There is plenty of room where my rad was but nothing to really mount it too. until i sat there looking and found a great spot to mount everything. Again this only works if you have relocated your radiator.
There are 3 holes on each corner, top and bottom of the oil cooler. 2 large and 1 small. If you drill out the smaller hole to fit a bolt through on the top. It just happens to be the same width as the factory bolt holes for your rad ( you do need to make about 1" spacers to hold it off the frame a bit. i used 1/4" steel pipe ). I also never used the little brackets with the rad relocator that are used for the push pins ( see pic ). That bracket has 2 holes that are the exact distance apart as the holes for the oil filter relocator.
Everything clears the shocks by at least a hand width. the hoses can be routed very easy and no sharp bends in the hoses. Everything it tucked up out of the way so no worries of anything hitting it.
Ill add more pics once i get it finished. I need to get oil before i finish and im doing a complete fluid change amongst other small projects so it might be a while.
Hope this helps anyone who was considering doing this
