Hello group! did a search but no joy, Has anyone installed a oil cooler on a 1975+(1500) Midget maybe with pics? I have the cooler and the line kit but... the paperwork just hints at a location for the cooler. The easiest place is in front of the RAD but is it the best place? Thank you for your input

Down here in sunny Johannesburg.
Did this myself it is really simple even with the rubber bumpers on. First remove the grill, several screws here. In front of the radiator on the body work are a number of bolts/screws avaialble for holding the brackest on. Put the oil rad in dry first with the oil pipes connected to test the space, ease of putting it together, test spanner manouverability and flexibility of hands. The kit should come with 2 pieces of holding brackets, bend them to fit appropriately. Should take about 2hours slow work. Remember to hve drained the oil first.

Thank you for the replies. Mark any water temp increase by putting in front of the Rad? By far this would be the quickest place to install it, being in South Africa I am sure the temps are warmer then Wisconsin. Scott the pics would be great!
