    I have a stacked plate auto trans cooler by trucool that I used for my power steering. Works well keeps the fluid in a useable working temperature.

    Just curious what is the optimum temperature you want the power steering fluid to be??

    Any idea just where you plan to install the temperature gauge ??

    Increase the fluid capacity will also lower the temperature

    The trans cooler in the radiator actually does both, warm the ATF and keep it cool when under harsh conditions
