I would run a split set up. The pipe blocks more than half of the radiator. Not too much air flow there.

thats what i was thinking right after i posted it, i guess the amp should fit in one of the sides tube,or ill just run it to one of my ammo cans if it wont,only thing thats stoping me from top mounting my rad. is im afraid of one day im gonna roll it and mess up my radiator.havnt rolled in a long time,but you never know

Both. I'm thinking about doing mine too, it depends on if a guy will trade me his Brute 650i for a Jeep YJ I got. If I get that then the Rancher is going back to sporty mode and I'll have the Brute for the mud.

Status: offline 		I've got a better electric fan on order for the radiator, as soon as I get that in then I'll prob go ahead and do mine then. If no one has posted pics by then I will, can't help much more then that at this time. I'm kinda just going to wing it lol. Hopefully it will work out for the better, I'm still havin a little bit of an issue with it getting too hot during a longer trail ride. Hoping the better fan will cure that issue and with it on the front rack may be I can keep it cleaner. Any body know what is the best angle to mount the rad at, should I angle it about 45 deg or a little closer to straight up, thinkin prob going to mount it at about 30 deg. I think it would be too hard to fill at any more then that kind of an angle, also I still do a lot of trail riding so I have to be able to see good over it.
