Is the 6.0 tranny cooler a good upgrade? Is it better than the trucool? Does it just fit in the stock location? How much more tranny fluid will i need to add for the bigger cooler? Thanks for your help

 

Check out my gallery pic's. I have both the 6.0 cooler and the Trucool 4739....can u say cool!

Get an old A/C condensor.
Clean it out and bolt it in.
I have done that many times.

 

does the 6.0 tranny cooler mod need more tranny fluid than our 7.3? I read that ours takes 18 quarts, if the 6.0 is bigger how many quarts will i nees to fill it. Thanks.

 

my guess is that it will take one, maybe two more quarts than stock. it has 300% of the surface area of the stock cooler. fill the transmission to full, run it for a few seconds and then check the oil while in Park with the engine running. add until it's in the range.

 

I don't think it would take much more. I can't remember how much fluid it holds stock, but Brian put in 18 quarts when the trans was completely empty, and that filled it perfectly.

IMO, the 6.0 cooler is better than the tru-cool. If I remember, the 6.0 cooler is about twice the size of the tru-cool.

 

Thanks alot jtharvey. That's what i was looking for and once again you had the knowledge.
