Continued SUSA/AutoSport Diff cooler install
Mounting the pump.
I made a bracket to mount the pump. The bracket is ¼” alum plate mounted to the exhaust hangers. I used spacers between the exhaust hangers and the pump bracket to provide clearance for the from of the exhaust hangers and a wire...
All,
Quick up-date on the install of my Susa/ AutoSport diff cooler. I've completed the wire harness, fabricated a pump mounting plate and installed the cooler/fan unit.
Also most done.
The wire harness:
12 V power was wired the same as the Ford Performance diff cooler system...

I had the exhaust wrap the 75W-140 lube
and used a blower to cool the diff between sessions.
I'm done. I don't want my track time to be limited by the diff temp and put more stress on it as the oil is breaking down from heat...
I removed the sonic tube firewall nut by reaching from the front along the engine bank and used a 1/4" deep 10 mm fine ratchet patiently 3 clicks at a time.. A real pain....
