    ? whats wrong with it? im about to be running a 9.5" converter plus its a DD/Track truck. my tranny temps right now just riding around is about 145* in 98* weather, and 165-170 running it a few good times in the same weather.
    so im sure with a smaller converter its going to heat up more

    that's just huge compared to my hayden... I want to get a different converter been lookin at the yank 2600 because it's the only one that claims to tow. Plus I'm having a weird issue, my tranny grabs so hard it feels like a chains attach to the front of my truck and it's gettin pulled out of the mud. but if i am in tow haul it just barks the tires... do i need a verter????

    you need to adjust your part throttle shift pressures. it's not suppose to grab the gear that hard imho. i hated it, so we adjusted it in my truck. i have a 278mm Circle D 3200 in the truck right now, and it drives good, no chirping the tires unless i want it to. i dont know much about the shifts and stuff but i would hate to have that going on in my truck. if i had to do it all over again, i would have went with the Tru-cool 40k from the beginning.

    A guy on pt.net sells custom install brackets for this cooler. I bought them from him, sprayed it all flat black, and mounted it behind the grill. All the holes lined right up.

    Actually, I'm not sure if the brackets would work on the NNBS trucks.

    they would, same hood latch set up. i seen that, i wasnt going to pay 45.00 for something that i can make at work, or just do it like i did.

    i went look at the pics on the 3rd page, i dont like that it's not centered in the grille.

    Yeah, if I could've made the brackets myself I'd have saved the money too. It was convenient and I can't even see it behind my stock grill.
