Default aftermarket tranny cooler...pics

I'm about to install an aftermarket tranny cooler in my truck just because....never had any problems with temps but now that I'm putting down more ponies I want to do whatever I can to keep the stock tranny pulling for as long as possible.

Anyone have any pics of where they located theirs and how they mounted it there?

Here's my setup... it works VERY well... and with you being in the south, you could probably bypass the radiator circut like I did with no issues.

It doesnt asy on the link... where did you route them?? along the frame?

My truck already had a small external cooler so i just ran it inline along with the other cooler and the cooler in the radiator.

On the way home(45min highway) it used to get up around 170 or so because there are a lot of long rills on I20, but tonight it didn't go over 150. So hopefully it will help keep things cooler in the future when it really warms up outside.

thanks again

I routed them similar to the stock lines... the beauty of the hoses is that you can put them pretty much wherever you want... I thought about mounting it under the bed with a fan on it too... If I ever need an intercooler I may do it this way
