VIdeo: Install Transmission Cooler in 16+ Automatic

I put this together quickly, sorry for terrible editing and dialogue, but that's not what you probably want to see anyways.

Will make a video of location of fill port, and how to check trans fluid soon. With a scan gauge, it was really not bad.

Thanks to these threads for helping me research what I needed to know to make this:

Install time with making video, 2 hours. I have never done a trans cooler before, it was pretty basic plumbing, however.

**PS** Trans fluid smells like a sweaty person.

That was an entertaining vid

 

Nice vid, but out of curiosity... what was the reason for adding a 2nd tranny cooler?

 

He's in Texas and I think I saw a boat in the video. Probably to tow it without having to worry about transmission temps.

 

I tow a few trailers and when it's 100 degrees outside, I've seen my trans temps hit 220F. Also, when towing our tent trailer through the mountains the 4Runner hit 235F, and honestly that's just a little too much for me to like. I'm going to be doing this to the 4Runner too.

 

I decided to leave the screw ups in there, better for the viewer

 

The first thing I thought of when the water sprayed everywhere
