All the below info is from what I have researched and is not from my personal experience so it is up to yourself what you make of this info I don`t want to misslead anyone:thumbdown:
I have read so many different ways to mount them, in front of rad is bad cuz it blocks the air flow to the rad and causes cooling issues, another flaw is that the rad will transfer heat to the cooler. Anything that causes the cooling system to run even slightly below perfect for me is just asking for trouble and will rob the engine of it`s headgasket...
Mounting above the rear axle: I don`t like really deep mud so it should`nt be an issue I have heard of mud guards for them but I`m guessing if you like mud bogging or really deep mud this is not a great place unless you have a switch to turn the fan off untill you can clean it out, as far as rocks kicking up well you got me there to but I have never seen any rock chips in that area of my Rig and you could always put a mesh grill to cover it ...
Another one I read was to mount it to the hood but the heat from the engine bay rises and does not make this an ideal place in my mind, but then again I`m not a scientist so any help is greatly appreciated.
Anyone who has any ideas of different places to mount the trans fancooler please scribble it down, does not have to be full of great detail :confused:
Don`t be one of those assclowns who don`t pass on what they know it`s that attitude that killed this planet :coffee:
