Radiator
My radiator has a leak from the cheap ziptie electric fans holders. I want to get a new aluminum radiator but #1) I dont want to pay Be Cool 600 bucks for one and #2) all of the cheaper ones from summit or jegs have no trans cooler.
Anyone have a solution?? Will the transmission get enough cooling from a remote cooler and NOT the radiator? I have a 4x4 and I WILL be towing. Thanks.

Re: Radiator
A decent sized remote cooler is enough to keep the trans cool. I've run lots of stuff with only external coolers and no in-radiator coolers.

Re: Radiator
I bolted mine to the outer frame of the radiator:
