It isn't mounted to the radiator shroud so there shouldn't be an issue with the frame flexing.
The only issue was the cooler didn't have a fan on it at first. The owner has since added a fan and there have been no issues with it. The owner also added a pretty big aluminum skid plate with holes drilled in it and I'm guessing that was the air flow issue.
