Done some mods to see if I can get the temps down at idle or stop start traffic. It was at about 230 Fahrenheit in traffic the other day which scared me .the fan did not cool it enough so bought two more for the front of it . This is only a trial version to see . Thectwo airoflow 7 inch fans are in the front and the derale fan is still in the back to suck even more air through. I also fitted a 40 by 20 angle on the side to draw in more air as the fans will block some of the air while I am on the highway .will see how it goes tommorow

Thanks. exhoust bracket I will sort out soon and might have to drill some holes where the engine oil cooler is so the heat can escape more easily. Temps got to 225 Fahrenheit engine oil . So that will help cool it better . Then I might fit another fan or two to the transmission oil cooler box .works great and does not get above 185 Fahrenheit when driving but after the cruise setion when I went into the pits it got to about 225 while sitting there ideling . Otherwise the ute goes well .
