Well, I've dropped the tranny pan; the gasket loks good, think I'll re-use it. There aren't enough metal shavings to speak of on the magnet. I wiped out the bottom of the pan until there was no more black being transferred to the shop towels. Now I'm going to install the new filter and the cooler. Should be fun . . .

Didn't get to the cooler yet as I had a heck of a time getting the old filter out. Finally I just started yanking on things and the impeding fluid line popped out; hope I didn't mess anything up, but I don't think so as it just popped back in.
I would reccomend that only those with technical knowledge and EXPERIANCE try to change out the filter. DIfficulty is 9.5/10. Will install the cooler either tomorrow or Thursday. |

Dont worry bout the cooler...its an easy install...depending on where your going to put it. Where are you going to install it?

I believe, officially, the fluid enters the radiator on the passenger side.

I installed it between the AC radiator and the radiator. It came with some plastic wires that feed through the fins. Not a hard install at all. I give it a 2 out of 10 if you're passed out, 1 if awake.
