Abstract
A stabilizing arrangement of a cooling system module of a vehicle includes stabilizer pins attached to the vehicle cooling system module. Stabilizer slots are incorporated into a component of the chassis of the vehicle, such as a frame extender. The stabilizer slots may be formed as an upwards opening U-shape. Bushings are attached to the stabilizer pins. The stabilizer pins and bushings extend laterally into and engage with the stabilizer slots. Upon installation, the stabilizer pins and bushings are aligned with the stabilizer slots as the cooling system module is lowered onto the ISO mounts. The stabilizer pins and bushings slide vertically downwards into the stabilizer slots as the cooling system module is lowered into place. The simpler stabilizer pins, bushings, and stabilizer slots thereby take the place of expensive, time consuming, complex, labor intensive, and space consuming stay rod arrangements.
