    Buggy Radiator Mounting

    I searched and couldn't find much info regarding mounting radiators in buggies. I am ordering a Ron Davis radiator and am wondering if I should go with a saddle mount or have them weld mounting tabs on it and mount it with rubber spacers. I have a dual Spal fan setup for the fans. Does anyone know which way of mounting is better? Any pics of different mounting ideas would be greatly appreciated!!

    With all the vibration in an off road car, saddle mount is the only way to go. Make sure you use rubber in the mount to eliminate excess vibration.
