Stillen Oil Cooler Mounting Hardware "HELP"
I purchase a used Stillen 19 row street oil cooler from a member and it was complete except for the mounting hardware. Nice set-up!
According to the instruction sheet on the Stillen website, the hardware is basically 2 Adel clamps, 2 bolts, 2 nuts, 1 spacer and washers. I called Stillen twice to order an installation kit, but was never called back. Does anyone have a kit out there that can give me sizes of the harware and clamps so that I can go to a harware store and compile my own kit please?

It seems the hardware was more used to relocate the PS cooler. If there is supposed to be an aditional bracket to mount the engine oil cooler, they make no mention of that in the instruction sheet part list nor the installation verbage which is unclear, but perhaps will be clearer after I remove the bumper cover. I just like to have my ducks in a row before starting a project like this.
Rep for you Simota far trying to help. Thank you!

here is a photo of the bracket i made outa aluminum its exactly like the stillen oil cooler bracket .... ignore the bracket on the right thats for the PS stillen oil cooler.... ill see if i have more photos... but its pretty much a bent 90 degree piece which has two holes so you bolt that part to the car and then 4 bolts hold the setrab oil cooler....

here is one illustration i did on paint for you.... one thing to remember when you put the four bolts for the setrab use 8 nuts.... the 4 nuts will act like spacers with the setrab cooler on top and then 4 nuts to hold it down i spaced mine out just so the setrab wont have water stuck underneath it possibly corroding it in the long run i hope that helps you bro.... i imagine you can just get a angle iron made outa aluminum about 1/8 thick at home depot... cut it to fit the size of the cooler and drill out the holes and viola all done...

The bracket is attached to the oil cooler. What I need, is the size of the adel clamps and the 2 bolt and spacer lengths used to relocate the power stering cooler. I know the bolts are supposed to be 1/4-20, but I need the lengths. Somebody has to have this kit laying around awaiting an install.
