Niiiiiiice.

 

I’m still stuck on this transmission cooler deal.

These were the two options i came up with:

Mishimoto MMOC-19 19 Row Oil Cooler

$178 Mishimoto Universal 19 Row Oil Cooler

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007ZG29DS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_uOufBb63W543T


Or


Hayden Automotive 679 Rapid-Cool Plate and Fin Transmission Cooler

$59 Hayden 679 Universal 11” Rapid-Cool Add-On Transmission Cooler to Enhance Cooling (not for direct replacement of the factory unit)

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000C3BBKS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_9OufBb9TQYEA0

 

IMO the hayden is a better cooler for a transmission application, as your getting more surface area on the cooler to transfer heat out of the trans fluid. plus, its gonna be easier to adapt the Hayden in since its just barb fittings, adapting to AN fittings is a major pain in the dick

 

But i want AN fittings. Because i’m an asshole.

 

Ordered one piece fender liners for the front

 

as in the plastic part, or the splash guards between the wheel well and engine bay?

 

Rubber splash guards.

Same thing @Unchained 5150 and @ChadsGayPride have on their rigs

 

Good job brother, your engine bay will thank you!

 

I have not installed mine yet. I am moving at Chad's old mod speed.

 

copy. i have those, im still trying to decide what to do about my plastic fender liners and front bumper, all the clips are trashed and the fender liners are chewed up from contacting the tire.

 

Same. I’m buying time by replacing screws and zipties until I can just cut them off and stuff them behind a plate bumper

 

Hell yeah, that's what's up. ​

 

My entire front bumper is held on by structural zip ties. I've already cut the front half off the driver side fender liner because it got so mangled there wasn't any more holes for zip ties. The passenger side has a battle scar from somewhere but it at least still has all the holes for the zip ties.
