    • After removing the side panel, it's clear that my oil cooler has been leaking for a while. Fortunately, AFAB sells a complete replacement kit including a new oil cooler and new hoses!

    • The tail light covers come off easy enough with 10 screws and a single connector.

    • The white housing beneath comes off with a bolt on the left and a screw on the right.

    • There were two Phillips screws in the bottom of the panel, but these weren't actually attached to anything.

    • My new side-routed exhaust definitely made it harder to get this panel out.

    • Once the condenser fan is removed we can get a good look at the oil cooler. The fittings are certainly leaking, but the cooler itself might actually be fine.

    • The Vixen bleeds black and I bleed red, whoops!

    • Here's all the shiny new replacement parts. You can buy the oil cooler kit from AFAB.

    • I made a mess of the threads putting one of the blue aluminum fittings in to the top of the new oil cooler. Thanks to a 1/2" NPT tap and die from Harbor Freight and a friend's help I was able to salvage it and I don't think it leaks, but time will tell...

    • Getting the oil cooler off the condenser was easy, there's just two bolts. But it's still attached to the engine...

    • Removing the remaining couplers was quite challenging.

    • I was able to borrow some large metric wrenches (24 mm and 27 mm) from a friend to help with this step.

    • I routed the new lines the same as the old ones.

    • The plastic lining the hole the hoses go through is definitely decaying, but seems like it'll still protect the hoses ok.
