The one in link is a member "drone", I pretty much did the exact same thing. I even used his parts list to order for my setup.

I put mine inside the fenderwell on the passenger side air flows through the hole in bumper and I cut a hole in the back of fender well liner for continuous airflow through area. inside the fenderwell area there were already holes available to install mounting bolts

Good stuff 85350, and yes you are correct by saying " you get what you pay for "
definitely go with Strong / quality braided lines.
Thanks and have a good day.

I moved mine back up to the front and mounted in front of the radiator. Drove it around this past weekend and saw nothing higher than 145* for the trans and 185* for the coolant. I have a fan on the cooler just in case and my front bumper plate area is cut out.
