Seems transmission coolers really are beneficial...

i agree best to run it via the rad after all in a normal situation the rad isn't to bad i wouldn't run the a/t to cold you may cause damage

I don't think it's running too cold. Not much chance of that really with the amount of heat soak from the engine

You should rotate your diagonal cooler to actually face oncoming air

Too much like hard work. It still radiates, that's good enough for me

i put one one me vs the other day..however im not sure if i hooked it up right as i ran the top hose from the radiator to the cooler then cooler back to the trans..? is this teh correct way? as i want it to go from trans to radiator then radiator to cooler then back to trans but dunno if if i hooked it up right

cheers

I THINK you actually need to put it in the bottom hose. The top one is the feed line FROM the auto. At least, I really hope it is otherwise mine are in wrong


**someone able to verify this?**

So does anyone know for SURE which hose to put the cooler in bottom as you(savage)has done or top as Jas did?.

Id say bottom which is the return line. The radiator cools the fluid to engine temp which is still quite hot. You dont want to cool the fluid through a cooler then heat it up again before returning to the trans.
