Did you need the dual fan setup? Were you having temperature issues? I'm always freaking out about temperature living in AZ. Really want to run A/C, but not at the expense of running hot.

My clearances are such that an electric fan is the only option I have right now.

Hey evenglass I have a 1986 Comanche and I'm doing the Mercedes swap. I'm not really sure how to come up with a plan on the engine mounts. And also I want ac cause I live in palm beach county. So I don't know exactly how I'm going to create a bracket like u did. Do you have any drive line vibrations or any deliverability issues from the swap? Any advise would be greatly appreciated

Pat With the AC just keep it as tight and high to the left side of the block as possible. No vibes or driveability issues at all. Just make sure you gear appropriately basically lowest gears possible 4.56 or 4.88. You're welcome to come drive and see it if you want, im in Highlands County not far from you. |
Koch enterprises has cherokee Comanche mounts available now. Thier rubber mount looks a little small though. Mine is a five speed cherokee and I am still trying to get the vibes down but they are not bad.

Here are the mounts I made using the mercedes mounts with some up stops. They are soft and let the motor move around alot.
