Hi all,
I have pretty much decidied that since I frequently take long road trips through very hot weather over the Rockies with 5 people and a loaded to the max jeep... it's time for me to get a transmission cooler and inline filter in my Jeep. However, I don't particularly want to mount it in the normal location (in front of the condenser) and I would like to install a very large unit, perhaps this Hayden motorhome cooler I have seen in somebody's writeup. Anyway, I need to be able to run the AC at highway speed or suffer a screaming family, and I hear that this can cause the engine temp to rise if the cooler is installed in front of the condenser. It would be great if the cooling of the transmission would have neutral or better yet a positive impact on the overall engine temp. Anyway, has anyone thought of / mounted a clever location for a transmission cooler? For extreme coolness, I could maybe mount a fan to the cooler, which would be just awesome for my peace of mind.
