    I ended up buying IL's biggest aluradiator and their spal fan kit.

    There are some challenges.

    As you see this is to tight fit for the swaybar, and it seems like a challenge to fasten the fan kit to the radiator.

    Any suggestion, is there something I'm doing wrong?

    I have contacted IL and I have sent them like a ton of pictures, so we will see.

    Returning radiator and fan. IL should send me a 42mm radiator with the fan kit mounted.
    That would according to IL clear the HR front swaybar which is 24mm, will be sufficient for most aftermarket swaybars.

    Seems odd that IL would sell something that doesn't fit. Ah, well, let's hope the next one they send you fits.

    Got their 42/50mm Radiator, IL mounted their fan kit on this one.


    Looks like a nice fit.



    The shrouding of the fan kit are building to much for my taste, guess its like 3-4 mm between my oem sway bar on the back of the fan.

    Guess I will go for this and customize the fan kit shrouding when mounting stiffer swaybar.

    an little update..

    Some parts from YJ

    Guess I will sell one of these.

    Bought this first.


    Then this came up and I got a good deal on it.


    Dont know hos this will be with black interior.



    Got help from my favourite assistant.



    Spots like this make me nervous. I've concluded that its water.


    Got transportation plates so I could delivered it to the garage for rust-fix.


    Coolant, I got.


    And it runs.

    Bend over and breathe gently. This will only take a moment.

    And I hate that style coil compressor! One decides to slip...

    I forgot to close my rear window last friday when I left the car at the Do-Jang.-
    It did rain, alot.

    Carpet out


    Always a little tricky


    Even the insulation behind the ecu was wet.



    Guess I will put new insulation on this used carpet and put it in. (sorry for the mess.)
