Sam, what did you use in place of the radiator cooler for your tranny?

Robert--- yeah, got mine in tonight-- will have it up and running tomorrow
(can't wait!)

Word of caution to anyone that's having a new tranny put in, or rebuilding
one--- DITCH the in-radiator portion of the tranny cooler, and replace the
external one (if you don't have one, get one)...Replace all rubber tranny
lines, and COMPLETELY check the existing hard lines... The material that
gets caught in that stuff basically killed my last rebuilt at the dealership
within 1900 miles. Not pretty.
