B&M Trans Cooler install

B&M Trans Cooler install
So I got one of our B&M Cooler that we had laying around and decided to replace my stock trans cooler. My truck had the one in front of the condenser and I just modified the OE brackets and mount this one in it place. While I was in there I did a couple of free mods as well (TB bypass and cut EGR pipe). My trans temp used to be around 160, as per the OE gauge. This morning while driving to work, it barely got up to 110. This is good news as I tow a big enclosed trailer and during the summer I will need all the cooling I can get. I will get pictures of my install later, to show what I did. Only thing I hjad to purchase (at Home Depot) was 3/8 NPT to 1/2 NPT adapter to go from the OE line to the B&M cooler.

I'm thinking about doing the same thing, but am having problems visualizing how to modify the stock mounting brackets. Definitely post pics if you get a chance.

I haven't had a chance to take pictures, I am hoping by Saturday I will be posting pictures.
