need ideas transmission cooler location ? I bought a stand alone transmission cooler with its own fan and 180 thermostat for my new 6l80e install.Just would like to see if anyone has any suggestions or pics of their installation. I do not have room in front of the rad.Thanks for the help .....John
How big is the cooler ?.. and which car ?
I've seen a few mounted on the frame outboard under the passenger door area.. would it fit there ? How about perpendicular to the back side of the lower Radiator ?

Anywhere you'll get good air flow should work.
I made a bracket for mine so it stands about 3-4" in front of radiator and attaches from core support to hood latch bracket. Been on the for 12+ years and doesn't go through the radiator at all. No issues even with the 4500 stall.
