it's not really all that complictaed. just have to take the front of the truck apart. radiator, grille,front bumper ( not necessary but recommended )...two bolts for fenders and two @ the frame..remove charcoal canister and a few other odds and ends. now i'm not saying it can be done in an hour but can be done in 1/2 day.

The problem with small diamter welded aluminum is the heat from welding anneals the material so it bends super easy
thin wall cromoly would be a better choice IMO

Does this rad support allow people who run elec fans to bring them closer to the engine so there would be more room for a FAT FMIC?
