WTB: B&M style trans cooler mounting bracket. Anyone making/selling one?

[phillyturbosix]

It's been wired tied to the front cross bars on the rad support but now that I had it all powder coated I'd like to find a nice bracket to mount the trans cooler too like the GNX style. Anyone have anything? Any vendors making one? I poked around a little bit and didn't see much. I could always get a piece of metal and make my own but I figured I'd see what was out there first

Hey Jim,
How ya doin?

I just picked up this transmission cooler kit from a vendor on e-bay. Maybe a bracket like this would work for you?

Now, that is a slick setup. off to ebay to search.

Looks like he sold them but it does say the bracket is cut on a water jet and powder coated black. And it comes with the nice hoses and fittings.

Looks good! Thanks for looking out Dave!

Did this bracket come with this kit? If so, who was the vendor selling it?

Yup, comes complete with the water jet cut powder coated bracket + 5/16" inverted flare lines & cooler.
It's a work of art & highly functional & very professional looking.
Comes with very detailed (colour) instructions.
Contact trick86 on this board. You won't be disappointed.
You can trust me as I have installed this .

Wonder if this will fit with a Front Mount?

 

[1KWIKSIX]

Don't know for sure, but this unit comes with some flexible hoses which would facilitate moving it around if need be.

I had to relocate mine behind the cross braces. I didn't use this setup tho.

Do you have his ebay link or seller name? Thanks

Looks to be like a great kit. Unfortunately, I don't think it will work as pictured with a front mount. It would have to go behind the cross braces. Hate to pay this price and not be able to use the bracket that comes with the kit.

I went through a bunch of work to get mine to mount between my pte front mount and the radiator. So much work that I wouldn't do it again. Used the thin style cooler and shimmed the ic forward 1/2". Had to use Allen head bolts and grind them flat after locktiting them to my custom brackets. I got pics somewhere. The cooler was like 3/4" thick even with brackets attached and bolts. Then I bent hard lines to go to it extremely tight fit. Had an entire weekend in it with the fm install.
