If it's the aluminum brackets that are cracked or broken, just take it to a radiator shop to get it fixed. If it's the rubber mount, just buy new ones from Mazda.

it is the mount on the passenger side of the cooler. it is broken loose from the cooler. the rubber part is on the mount which is still bolted in, and the cooler is just hanging loose on that side. and the only way to get a new mount is buy a whole new cooler which is 400 bucks(way the crap too much for me right now)

Get it welded. Just find someone that is good with aluminum.

Hey, swolbynos, you could try and get it welded, should be no big deal or adapt a 2nd gen cooler which you can get at a fairly cheap price. My friend also has an early 79-82 oil cooler which is easier to adapt to the gsl-se which he could sell you.
