did have to drill a couple of holes bigger, and DO make sure all fan tabs line up, or are fabbed BEFORE fitment, as hacksawing one off from underneath was annoying.
The trans line tool are little bitches and i had to swear a lot before it gave up the ghost, the other one unscrews,,all good so far

Would this trans mount fit? It has the studs off centre, as I hear it changed for the 2000 model. Is this the correct mount type?

had to enlarge some mounting holes a trice too
from reports on here, poor fit is an issue with many rads

Okay cool, I'll compare both rads whilst they're out and make sure they are the same. Cheers. Also got a set of silicone hoses to replace the old rubber ones.
Also what's your trans mount look like? Did it have offset studs for the cross member or symmetrical ones?
