INSTALATIoN
30.
Place the Banks cAc in the
vehicle. Align the lower cAc
mounting pegs with the rubber
mounts in the vehicle’s frame. There
is a significant amount of play in
the rubber mounts that can allow
them to be aligned with the cAc as
required.
31.
Reinstall the radiator into the
lower saddle mounts of the Banks
cAc.
32.
Reinstall the radiator cross
brace. Leave the attachment bolts
loose to aid in aligning the cAc with
the support.
33.
Install the upper cAc
attachment bolts that were
previously removed. There is enough
play in the lower mounting pads, that
the cAc can be positioned to align
with the upper cross brace. Tighten
the bolts.
34.
Position the radiator so that
it’s centered on the cAc. check the
gap between the hose stops on the
cAc and the radiator end tanks on
each side of the cAc. Reposition
the radiator relative to the cAc until
the gap is equal on each side. The
location to check is shown in
Figure 20.
