Here is the bracket for the line-reducing bulkhead fitting, which also acts as a hard stop to force a vibration-friendly bend in the return line heading to the engine....

And here's the progress of the cooler, it's a Setrab 14-raw 250mm "SLM" slim cooler, and the core is about 5" tall by 10" wide..

The nice thing about the pressure hose being a 3500psi hydraulic line, and having a 90* end on one side but a straight end on the other, is you can pre-load the straight end with a bit of twist, to make the stiffer hydraulic hose curl or twist if you want, like I did to give it a bit more of a clearance bend above the UCA....

And the front bumper re-installed, with an extra support bracket for the left side of the cooler to the bottom of the bumper...
