i'm confused, your trans lines already go to a cooler and if you bought one it wouldn't just plug into your trans, you'd still need lines to get from the trans to the cooler.

Here's how. Leave the radiator as is but tap into the tranny return line from the rad and send the fluid to the extra cooler, which you mount in front of the rad (and AC unit, if that's there too). Then send the aftermarket return line to the tranny return line and voila! You've REALLY cooled down that hot tranny fluid! This will at least double the life of an automatic tranny, no kidding.
And all for a miserable $30 or so.
