Default Tranny cooler mount question?
So I got a tranny cooler yesterday and used the through radiator ziptie things. Is this fine and I ziptied it to mounts so it wouldn't bounce but it had no place to bolt in mounts. Should I just make some mounts to just loop around the tubes or what. I just think its kinda sketchy for the zip tie things??

did it come with metal straps like the ones used here, there bolted down. I dont think the zip tie thing is a good idea personally.

The zip tie fasteners are just fine, I use them all the time.

No nothing like that. No brackets or a place to bolt on brackets. I might fab some up for some extra security

The zip ties are fine, holds the cooler on nice and secure. No movement at all after several months.
