Anybody got one?  Where did you mount it?

Don't have a cooler, but I've been doing the Mustang-5.0-oil-filter-on-a-2.5-Wrangler thing.  Using the Mobil 301 filter and engine oil capacity has gone from 4 to almost 5 quarts as a result.  Cooler oil? Nah.

But its basically 5 quarts taking the stress of the normal 4, so it probably ain't a bad move.  

Thought you mounted oil coolers near the front of the radiator, or is that transmission cooler I'm thinking?  :?

That's usually where I've put them in the past - under the radiator... but these are almost square at 10x12 and have a fan - they say "no direct airflow needed, just don't mount them against something flush" so I was wondering if anybody knew a good place that kept them up and out of the way.  I'll probably end up sticking it near the up front someplace.
