VERY nice! Any mods needed to install them or just "plug & play"?

made a baffle for the rad so air is forced thru the cooler/rad, mounted the e-fan, ordered 2 90 degree 1.5" silicone radiator hose elbows and a 1 3/4" x 10" flex rad hose.

ill take some more in depth pics of the rad install once i finish it all completely. still need to paint it all, make another baffle, drill some holes for trans cooler lines, make an L bracket for the bottom of the e-fan, and tweak the explorer cooler a bit(and maybe ad a second pin for the bottom to keep it from twisting around)

Good to know. My seats are in good shape but if I were to happen across a set of ZJ ones I might be tempted.
