    Thinking about putting a tranny gcooler
    Hi, has anyone installed a transmission cooler on a 96 2.4L Tacoma. Where is the best place to put it, I would like to install one away from the tranny. If I buy an exact fit , is that true it comes with all the mounting hardware. Also if you installed a duel bypass one where did you put it, I'm talking about the long cylinder type with the fin vents on the outside. I am trying to by pass the tranny.

    Transmission coolers
    This is how Low Pressure Drop technology works::
    When Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is cold it is viscous. The unique Tru-Cool design allows the colder, thicker ATF to flow more efficiently through two open bypass channels positioned at the top of the cooler. As operating temperatures increase, the ATF becomes hotter and thinner, It's then directed through the core where it is cooled. Tru-Cool's highly efficient cooling technology combines improved protection against lube failure with optimal heat transfer.

    Long Tru-Cool Oil Coolers offer advanced cooling protection for many towing applications. The advanced technology out performs TUBE & FIN Designs, Delivers up to 15 times less flow restrictions, 30% more cooling delivers maximum heat transfer, Self-Regulating for maximum lube flow protection through start-up, varied temperatures and driving conditions, heavy loads and towing.
