aux tranny cooler for chevy 1500 - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

well, my dad picked up a 2007 chevy 1500 wt. 2wd auto. My question is, we do some towing...about 4k max for pretty extended periods of time to pull the smokers.

I think that it might be a good idea for us to look into a aftermarket tranny cooler. Anyone have any suggestions as to which brand we should look at?

Ditto.

Get a larger capacity trans pan with cooling fins too. It makes a huge difference.

avoid pans with the cooling tubes that are supposed to run air through them they just trap crap and make it a lot harder to clean and more chance to trap debris to later pick up. the more fluid you add to the system the better. only thing in a auto that makes heat is the converter.
