    Yeah, don’t skimp if you have any kind of investment in the trans and make decent power. That cooler is a very nice setup. Installed several on tow pig diesels now. They are worth it! As crazy as that may seem.

    Buy once cry once is a cliche motto, but man is it true. This is like my 6th trans cooler setup.

    There are tons of good brands, id probably stick to either derale or setrab for off the shelf stuff. I think Ron Davis makes trans coolers too, but they can make whatever you can think up, and their pricing reflects that. My rad was like 2k from them iirc.

    I can cut some pretty good deals on Koyo. That’s what we have on the wife’s for trans and steering. Pretty solid coolers for the money. Also deal with SPAL.

    Buy once cry once has me crying every day . Way too many "onces" in a truck build to be throwing that saying around.

    Scangauge 3 are on sale right now, thinking about picking one up. Anyone have any feedback? Seems pretty bulky compared to the scangauge 2

    Running the 2 for a long time works great and is small doesn't take up much room.

    Who, if anyone; has installed a Jaz Jeepspeed fuel cell where our factory spare tire goes? Currently running dual spares horizontally in the bed as far back as possible, trying to keep as much weight in the rear.

    The Silverado mount setup looks perfect, maybe some minor drilling and/or frame reinforcement. I’m just wondering about the rails width being too far apart compared to our trucks and needing to build an adaptor bracket or something to make it work.

    Have the 3 in two vehicles. I love how much you can monitor with a single glance.
