I had a similar problem, I ended up putting the rad at a bigger angle than in the manual, in order to get hose clearance.
I think it should be OK, but not tested yet.

There are some Pics in my archive.

Ignore the fan ties, they need to be changed.

... had a look, did you just rivot the bracket to the chassis? and im sure that angle should be fine!

i used rivnuts to fix the upper brackets and made little plates to rivet the lower mounts.
looks like you have a tube upper chassis rail which might make rivnuts pretty hard to use.

i had to angle the lower mounts away from the chassis enough to get a 90 degree silicone hose bend in there.
