6.0 trans cooler install procedure

After blowing my trans this summer in conn to the tune of $3400, I was talking to fords tranny guy that did the install and I informed him that some people were installing 6.0 coolers on their 7.3's. Well it turns out we were by his tool box and he says I got a 6.0 cooler new in the box that you can have for nothing. I tried to give him some cash and he refused he said If you can make it work go for it. He says he was gonna trash it if i didn't want it. Well now I got the cooler so I guess I need some fittings and hoses and a writeup on the install if anybody can help thanks guys.

Let me make sure I have this strait I hooked mine up this way, First the high pressure line goes in the bottom passenger side of the radiator, then out of the driver then into the drivers side of my 6.0 cooler then back out and into the low pressure side of the steel line returning to the trans. I hope this way works I already have it back together. I guess my next question is everybody using the radiator part of the cooler or not.

My early 99 doesn't have the aux cooler in the radiator. Bump.
