I don't have any pics, but modified the stock bracket and welded 2 3/16" x 2" straps on so that the straps were overhanging on one side. Drilled four holes and located under the front cross member. Used rivnuts and got her mounted. From there, it was just routing coolant and trans lines.
Works like stock and is pretty well protected unless you plan on burying the nose off road.
I also looked at putting it under the truck, but too much of a hassle as all the connections are already in the front.

The bottom charger is going to be a s472, I have heard that some guys have been able to leave the exchanger in the stock location with the s400's, just need to grind the bracket a little or something, can anyone confirm this? if I cant we will probably put it under the x-member up front.
