Default installed my tranny cooler today
came out pretty good other then not havin the right fittins and i drove all over lookin but of course it was 6:30 so almost everthing was closed and then when i got home i forgot i took the fitting out of the tranny cooler that goes to the radiator to match up the threads with the new fitting and started the truck to move it and lost about three quarts of tranny fluid on my garage floor and all over the inside of my engine compartment but anyways hears some pics.

The fittings it came with wouldn't hook up to your lines? Hooked up to mine just fine.

Where did you get a 90 degree fitting for the radiator? That's a good idea and I want to copy it
