Doncha have to use the mounts from the coily as well? Eg, the mounts that bolt to the chassis, & then the rad bolts to those.

ahh the little things you dont notice, yes you will need these for a straigh bolt in, otherwise its just drill a hole on one side and eiter weld or fab a mount the other side.
