When you planning on starting the swap?
Rent a picker from Pasco Rentals.

Once I get that head gasket and some 40mm brass plugs.
I've got a picker lined up but! I'm dealing with fuck tard jaret.
There a pretty cool guy that works at the O'Reilly that was saying he can probably let me borrow theirs. I'll talk to him tomorrow.

If you have a quad, tree or rafter, & a chain; you have a picker.
Down here it's called redneck ingenuity

Yeahhh I've got a way to redneck some shit together....
I gave datsunpartsllc.com a call and talk to a guy named Allen who said he's used that head gasket on the 2.3 big bore before.
Always nice to know someone's used what I bought..

Why would you not want to mount that to the front bumper?

Just doing some test fitting..
Looks like the cooler is fitting pretty well in a few spots.. The grill being the best because of air flow, the other place is behind the apron on the pass side slit. It's not bad where it's at tho.
I tried to get a metal fan but the store isn't finding one that will fit over the clutch. So maybe I'll use an l16 pully?

I can't mount the oil'rad upside down can I??
It would allow me to flip the hoses so I can have the 90° hose adapter on the sandwich plate...
