View from underneath showing the 1-ton idler arm upgrade. I had to route the supplemental transmission cooler lines between the top if it and the bottom of the fan shroud. I added lengths of scrap heater hose to protect the hoses from rubbing.

Another view of the extra transmission cooling lines. The slivery metal strap is what I had used to secure the lower fan shroud with the earlier ECP radiator. I likely didn't need it but it was easier to reuse than remove.

View from below showing my supplemental transmission cooler lines. In the far left of the radiator you can see where I used a zip tie to secure the bottom fan shroud to the bottom of the radiator using a hole in the radiator frame, I did this at the center and on the driver side. too.

Picture of the engine side of the radiator as soon as I unpacked it. It only came with the connectors for the oil-cooler. I was able to swap the old ones for the transmission cooler.

The view from low behind the front brake caliper. The open hole where the plug goes in the block can be seen in the lighted area. The front end of the left-side torsion bar is in the foreground.

The frequency of the vibrations. The frequencies are in terms of the expected frequency of vibration of the driveshaft. The main peaks line up with these indicating that the vibrations are not with the wheels.
