Default can you hook up 2 coolers?

I have a B&m cooler mounted "dope" style (facing the ground in front of the plastic air dam).
Would it hurt, or be pointless to hook up another cooler next to that?

I dont see the need for 2 when you have one big effeciant one with a temp fan mounted in a strategic location.

Im in the process of adding another with a fan on it. I already have one mounted dope style and the new one with the fan is going to be on the other side mounted dope style.

what is the need for another one, my trans runs extremely cool now with my 28,000 and my deep pan.

also too cool is also bad for a trans, it needs some heat especially for a DD and in winter

Although it looks ghetto now, I have cut holes through the absorber, enlarged the existing holes in the bumper bar, removed the washer bottle, and hung two 24K coolers off the top of the bar. Now, when the fans come on, I can feel air pulled through the holes, and them temps barely get above 185* when I' m in traffic, in 100+* temps, for like 45 minutes straight. This has helped my coolant temps too.
