    Mounted my Tru Cool 40k transmision cooler a little different.

    So i finally got around to installing my 40,000 GVW Tru Cool transmission cooler. I put it after my radiator because this is such an efficient cooler that if mounted up front like most people do my tranny would run at about 150* and that's a little too cool for me. Plus mounting it after everything i'll get better A/C performance and my motor will run quite a bit cooler, since i by passed the stock radiator in tank transmission cooler and removed the front auxiliary cooler.
    Tranny temps before were about 200* and coolant was about 189* with about 103* ambient temps in stop and go driving.
    After temps with about 102* ambient temp stop and go driving were about tranny 180* and coolant 177*.
    Stock auxiliary cooler

    Tru-Cool 40,000 GVW cooler.

    Eh 180 is nice, but 150 is better especially in an SUV

    150 is too cool. It looks cool. I'm thinking of doing something similar because mine runs a little warm. When are gonna install that other thing you got?

    Was gonna do it this week, hence the not mounting the tranny cooler up front, but i got slammed with three cars this weekend. Paying work comes first.

    Great! There is like 2"-3" of room between the actual fins of the radiator and the actual fins on the fans.

    Good to know. Did you sell the new things that have to come off to put the new thing you got on?

    you should put some Efans in there.. more room, more clearance, better cooling, better AC performance too!
