Transmission coolers

Featured Replies

I know the weak link in a SVX is its transmission. I want to install a cooler. The smallest I can find is about 6" high. Anyone done this? Brand recommendations? Think it can be made to fit under the radiator? I have a front air dam that helps with shielding and rock strikes. tks

yep.  even the small ones are enormous compared to the stock dinky cylinder submerged inside the ATF inside the transmission - it gets no direct air flow at all.  technically you should sample some actual temps (ATF or engine) and see where you're at before and after installing but most people just guess. 

 

they're typically installed in front of the radiator/A/Ccondensor

Your best bet is to go on to some of the SVX specific forums as they have TONS of write ups on how to install coolers, and what works etc.

 

People here can give advice. But not too many of us here own/have owned svx's.
