Ahhhh, gotcha!

I have a cooler on mine. Lots of fellas here do too, just something you kinda forget about? They're cheap too, I think mine with the line and fittings was only around $60? Cheap way to help your tranny last longer.

I said to heck with the column shift and put in a Lokar floor shift.
