With a few tweaks of my own. I got a race shop to weld on -6 AN bungs onto the cooler so I could use Aeroquip lines.




I should have given the transition from hard tube to flexible hose a little more thought before ordering parts. What is on there now are crimp fittings to allow the use of -6 AN adapters. I should have just got some tube sleeves and flare nuts and just flared the ends of the tube for a more elegant joint. Oh well.


So here she is all mounted up and keeping transmission temperatures down.

 

looks really good, where did you find the compresion fittings to go on the hard lines and what size?

 

Ace Hardware

3/8" compression to 3/8" NPT male. All the other hose and fittings came from Summit Racing.

 

Do you have any big pics? I can't make out any detail on the one's you've provided.

 

AN fittings and braided stainless lines just have the ultimate cool rating associated with them. Nice work.

 

Not to be a critic, but did you try cleaning it up a bit? It looks pretty nasty in the pics.

Mine wasn't new either, so don't take it the wrong way...

 

I was thinking the same thing, hope your cleaned it out, looked nasty from here. X2, don't take it the wrong way here either..

 

Nice install!

 

Yeah, I know. You guys should have seen it when I first got it. I spent a whole day and a bottle of Simple Green degreasing the thing to the point where I feared I would scrub a hole in it.

What you see in the picture is after the cleaning.

It seems to be doing the job though. My transmission temperatures have dropped 30 degrees towing my 24' enclosed trailer around on a warm (for MN) day. The real test will come when the ambient temps get up to 80+, if ever, this summer.

 

Looking good Leonard. Congrats on the successful install.
