I now want to install A/C, so I have ordered a condensor (Bouchillon kit 6651). I'm thinking that having the trans cooler in front of both the radiator and condensor might cut off too much airflow(?). Opinions? Has anyone else run into this situation, and how did you resolve it? Is there another location for the trans cooler which would be more suitable? Thanks for any help. Roger

I have A/C with the auxiliary trans cooler out in front of them both with no issues...I don't think you'll have any trouble using that size cooler mine's actually larger than that...Just make sure you have a thermal clutch fan doing it's job with a proper fitting shroud...
