It's never enough
Re: Feeling real stupid (RPM lines)
Well I guess I already have an aftermarket trans cooler. All these years I've had the truck and never really paid any attention to it.
I was thinking what I currently have was from the factory (thought the factory trans cooler was external vs what it actually is internal). Doing searches regarding trans coolers I didn't understand if what I had was actually factory why would I add another cooler (most common) versus just upgrading it. I don't think mine needs to be any bigger after actually looking at it.
One other part to cross off the checklist I guess. Definitely doesn't suck to have it.

Is this your bush?
Re: Feeling real stupid (RPM lines)
Do you have a transmission temp gauge? If not get one of those so you can monitor the trans fluid temp and how much the cooler you have is currently working.:tup:
Mine runs at 140° even when I get on it and beat around with it....it ran upwards of 200° with the factory cooler. Transmissions love to be cool and enjoy clean fluid. If your wanting to go the extra mile get a transmission pan that aluminum with fins to dissipate the heat or buy a derale pan like this.....http://derale.com/products/transmis...male-x-3-8-barb-90-degree-barb-fitting-detail
I did get the extra 2qt. Pan and they have a cooling deal with tubes that run parallel through the pan as air passes through they cool it even more they say. It also has a drain plug! Easy trans fluid change whenever you want!
