    Coyote Cooling Expantion Tank Height

    All,

    Just completed the install of the cooling expansion tank (Moroso). I followed previous input received to line the tank mounting tab up vertically to the bottom edge of the cross member.

    Here's a side shot:

    Let me know if my height looks OK with respect to the side rails and/or if these are a couple measurements I can take to assure eventual clearance w/ the hood.

    Thanks

    That's exactly where I mounted mine. I might even have been the one to give that suggestion before. Mounting brackets on the underside of the cross member and lower mount on the radiator shroud. It clears the hood fine.

    Just a thought. There are two COYOTE tanks from MOROSO & they mount slightly differently.

    Paul, you absolutely did. Now that I have it installed, was looking for confirmation.

    I opted for the Moroso 63806 (same as Paul's)

    Stay tuned as I have a couple of hose connection questions
