    As the title says. Looking for a good transmission oil cooler. Going on a few trips next spring and thought about installing one over the winter to be ready for spring driving.

    If you haul anything more than a small utility trailer, like a travel traveler or something equally as heavy, it is a good thing to have, it will keep your tranny fluids from over heating, one of the worst things you can do to a Auto Tranny...

    That's what I'm thinking too. I'm actually going to be towing a small utility trailer for a bunch of small stuff that I won't need everyday. It only weighs 900lbs unloaded.

    Added a small Tru cool to my four cyl. Should have gone bigger 'cause this Fl. heat causes the fluid to get close to 200 (no towing)
