I want to make my shutter flap setup work... right now I have a earlier setup and want to run the doghouse fan shroud so do I have to get the proper arm so it will clear the doghouse extra cooler setup so the shutters wont hangup ??? Does anyone have pictures so I will know what to look for???

That was hard to read.
Your answer is Yes. The crossbar has a bend to clear the oil cooler projection.

| I'm not planning to use my heaters just the J pipes I can use a 12 volt setup that works better but I saw that my flap setup might not work that well unless I use a tin setup like that awesome powdercoat industrial shields has to offer but are they really necessary especially on the other side where the bellows isnt there any suggestions??? |

Some members here have made their own industrial tins. Maybe search heater box delete tins. Or some combination.
But yes, you will need them if you are running J pipes in place of the heater boxes. |
