Yeah if I had replaced mine sooner I might have got more than 240k miles out of the original tranny. You guys are dealing with that Mi. heat nothing like these Texas warm spells. Brian did hook me up with a super duty cooler when he rebuild the tranny. That was 3 years ago and no problems yet.

Forgot to mention that there is also an additional tranny cooler behind the AC cooler. It's about a 1' X 1' and about 1" thick. Is this big enough? I think it's what's called a stacked plate? All the fins are solid unlike the fins on the stock cooler. I don't know that I could get anything bigger in there with the intercooler in the front.
Also does the tranny cooler in the radiator help very much?

I actually put a 6.0 cooler on my truck and I love it, its huge.. The problem is that I have the complete set up to add a 6.0 intercooler. Like Neal, I have stage twos in my future with a D66 turbo and I dont know which is more important, the tranny cooler or the intercooler. Which IS more important!? They both wont fit in there so I have to choose one are the other. Reek

Thanks for the pitures RÖENTGEEP, but non of those are a 6.0 coolesr. I just went out and measured the one on my truck and its 14x24x2. No way it will fit between the brace like shot one, but the other two may hold some promise. I just went out and measured and If i remove the little little rubber splash guard thingy (official name Im sure) under the radiator and mount it like the last two photos, the bottom would be about 1 inch lower then the bottom of the bumper. I would have to remove all the mounting brackets form the cooler and somehow try to protect it. But thats closer then I was before. I still would like to see if anyone has done this and has a picture of it.

Are you sure that the last one isnt a 6.0 trans cooler?, 
the other two I think are tru-cool.

28k??? Where did you hear that??? I bought a 25k that is 4 times bigger than the sock, same size internal routing ports, etc.... 28k has to be some sort of misprint, right?
