Tranny cooler
I mounted the largest Tranny cooler I could find, that might fit on the van, the Tru-Cool - Max LPD47391. To make it fit, I removed one of the grill mounting posts, and added two pieces of bar stock across the opening to hold the tranny cooler, later painting it all black to look again like a stock option. I cut a little sheet metal for the hose, and had to alter the plastic air flow deflector on the side of the radiator. Awhile back, I also added the larger 4x4 tranny pan with a drain plug, when servicing the the tranny, and seeing if I trashed it after I over-heated the tranny in the mountains and dumped 6 qts of fluid out of the front main seal, on the trail. It seemed OK inside the pan, and the tranny is working fine. Next will be a tranny temp gauge.
