    Nice job ladderman!

    I'm currently attempting to add a rad to the top of my TJ07 and ran into the same issues that you have. Question: If you moved the fans to between the mesh screen and the rad, would this be to detrimental to the cooling? If venting out the top this would make it a pull config instead of a push.

    The reason I ask is you can gain about 3/32" to 1/8" with the fans in the recess of the mesh instead of loosing that extra 3/32" since rads are too wide to fit in that recess. My current working plan is to cut the mesh for the two 120mm fans allowing much more air flow and attach a radgrillz on top of the screen. I understand that ladderman's intentions were to do this without cutting or drilling the screen at the top, but I have a spare screen that I don't mind whittling up.

    What do you guys think?
