external trans cooler...
Anyone install one?
What line from the radiator goes back to the transmission? Drivers side or passenger side? That's the one I'm looking to tap into.
Recently installed a transmission temp gauge into the test port number 3 and seeing temperatures upwards to 200 degrees.
I'm looking to bring those numbers down a bit seeing that my drive to work is up and down mountain passes

any trany cooler is better than the stock. but try to use steel brake line tubing as much as you can. all so i found an EXTERNAL filter. use ONLY steel brake lines. copper WILL break off. the factory uses steel for a reason!!!! mopar most use 3/8 dia tube, but some might be 5/16. i think most have the fluid in at the rear left side. here is an EXTERANL filter, i found. have one on my 01 dak. my idea is when you put a new filter in side this one will help from having to do the inside one as often.*
the old auto zone 2210 magenfine filter is no longer available at auto zone. BUT i did find the same thing as JX-160 brand-- ATP. at a real parts house uses 3/8" tube. a JX-150 for 5/16 tube. ONLY use high pressure hose. If you must. SAE J1019 217 psi working. NOT fuel hose for a carb engine.
