Radiator & FMIC Crossmember – M57 Transit Conversion (Viscous Fan Compatible)

📝 Product Description

Custom radiator and front mount intercooler (FMIC) crossmember designed specifically for BMW M57 Transit conversions.

This crossmember allows the factory radiator and front mount intercooler to be retained while creating the clearance required for the OEM viscous cooling fan, removing the need to convert to electric fans in most applications.

Designed around proven conversion setups, it bolts directly into the original mounting locations to provide a strong, factory-style installation.

Retaining the viscous fan offers several advantages:

• Excellent cooling performance under heavy load
• Reliable operation with no additional electrical components
• Increased airflow at low vehicle speeds
• Ideal for towing, off-road use and heavy-duty applications

🧠 Why Choose This Crossmember?

Packaging the cooling system is one of the biggest challenges when fitting an M57 into a Transit.
