Before you begin

  • The frame side mounts are slotted to allow for various engine positions.
  • Automatic transmission trucks: move the transmission crossmember back to the rear set of holes normally used for manual transmission mounting.
  • Manual transmission trucks: modify the crossmember so the engine and transmission can move far enough back to allow room for the mechanical fan.
  • Leave enough room to install and remove the mechanical fan for servicing.

Install the block mounts

  1. Install the driver side and passenger side block mounts using the set of 4 holes located mid-engine.
  2. Use the provided M12-1.75 x 40 mm flange-head bolts. Torque to 44 lb-ft.
