As far as the oil cooler placement, i'll have ask why you didn't mount them like GTM does or at least change out that bottom fitting with either a 45° or 90°? Just looks like that hose has a lot of stress right at the bottom port of the cooler because of angle of the fitting vs angle of the hose.

The other concern i have is the hoses running under that part of the sway bar. That sway bar is going to move down as you put weight on the suspension, and move even more as the suspension compresses over bumps and such.
Hector did not have any photos in the manual for the oil cooler placements. He asked Sam to send him some, but none arrived by the time he needed to get it done. (Next day).

Where are they?
