New transfer case cooler. The stock one was directly in route of where my exhaust needs to go and the stock hoses were to short to put it anywhere i liked.

I cut the factory flare fittings off with a cutoff wheel. Sanded and cleaned up the factory tubing before i put the compression fittings on.

Luckily i checked rotation if my fan before the front end went one. I had wired backwards out of the fan relay. No big deal, cut and resolderd once they were switched around

The lower plastic valance to a good bit of grinding to clear and rubbing spots against the intercooler.

Here are the plates i made to bolt the bumper up. Just a plate with drilled holes to compensate for the body lift. You can notice they are off centerd. I did move the bumper forward just a hair to help with clearence on intercooler.

So the bumper did take slight modifuing to go on. Cause of the intercooler but mainly the body lift. Unfortunately i do not have a after pic of what this bracket looked like whenni was done in order for to go on. But about 1/4" below each hole i drew a straight line and had to cut off a chunk of the bracket in order for it to get to its stock location.

So this is currently as it sits 4/22/18. 
 Almost done, still have a little tig welding left in order for the top radiator connection to look good. Will have pics up and what was done when i do it. I did run a vacum line from the intake plenum to the stock vacum cannister. Started it and put it in 4wd and it actually actuated and worked lol. One more check off the wiring harness job.

Pic of the stainless 5/16" lines i bent, i drilled and tapped threads into the frame. They come down from motor run along frame and jump over the trosion bar mount then high pressure rubber hose from the pump. I started with reg fuel line at first but figured out while heading home luckily that they dont handle fuel pump pressure very well.

Since i removed the factory transfer case cooler i replaced it with this run. Fits very well against the frame. I was gonna build a small guard for it but i do not intend to whell this through the woods. I don't think the tire will kick anything up enoguh to damage it going down the road

For the radiator it is the a brand new factory radiator. For the hook up i took the thermostat housing off the motor and cut the neck of it, rotated roughly 180° then welded back on. This puts it facing away from the motor and much eaisier to make the connection with no obstruction. Unfortunately i do not have a pic of the process. I orderd a 1 1/4" 180° silicone Ubend. I cut it to fit and clamped everything together. I really do not like using hose clamps on anything pressure or visible.

When i had the body off and was working on frame i cut the factory rear crossmember out and just added this one. At the time i was thinking maybe i would add a rear winch......very glad i neve did that. Nonetheless it had to come out
