Default Can someone show me where to mount the AC Condensor? (Pics provided)

I think I must be challenged or something, but I can't seem to figure out where it goes for the life of me. I already got the Spring Lock's off for the lines, but I have to install the rad/fans and am not 100% where exactly the condensor mounts, in front or behind the rad, or where it bolts into the core support.

Can someone circle or describe?









Many thanks

The condenser coil is mounted in front of the radiator. The parts diagrams here might help:

As best I can tell, it's held by rubber pieces that fit into the two recesses that appear as raised areas in your first photo. From the "Fragile" decal, go out to the round bumps that face forward, then up/back. There are probably similar features on the bottom to hold it.

Page ATC-134 of the 2007 service manual has a drawing that seems to agree with that.

Ah, I noticed it would fit in those two tabs but I couldn't see how it mounted. Thank you, I just ordered the rubber fittings from courtesy as well as some other rubber fittings I noticed I didn't have for mounting the rad as well.

Thanks again!
