Am I not seeing this right or is that how they come? How is one supposed to hook up their transmission coolant lines if that's the case?

Would that be enough to cool my transmission?

Ron So Ron you run your coolant lines from the transmission to the transmission cooler and back without using the radiator? ! Last edited by 74RR; 04/09/09 07:04 AM.
