Re: Inexpensive Radiator I Need One.
I wouldn't worry about filling up the trans fluid tubes in the radiator. Just start the engine, check the fluid level, and add whatever is required. I'd guess it's less than one pint.

Ok, I got my $160 total (coolant, hoses, clamps, fittings, Rad etc etc) Chinese set up in..... The slushbox cooling lines are connected into the Radiator. I got that separate trans cooler bolted onto the radiator support, about 3 inches off the radiator I'll probably splice that into one of the radiator cooling lines. I have all the parts to install it, better than just having them in a box somewhere Right? Thanks Guys, Stay Cool! Last edited by Loose Screw; Yesterday at 12:34 AM. |

Re: Inexpensive Radiator I Need One.
That looks like a serious aux cooler for towing. It should serve you well.
Here's my small B&M stacked plate cooler. It's been on the truck for around 20 years. The TH350 trans was rebuilt in 1990 and got a TransGo kit around 10-12 years later. Those TH350s are tough!
