Default Trans diff coolers. U dudes have pics?

Gonna probably plumb a cooler setup into my trans soon, and then my diff. I've had the cooler for a while, and a bunch of left over a/n fittings, haven't done it yet. Anyone have pics of they're setups? Pretty much wanna steal your idea and/or improve upon it based off my setup and given room. Gotta make this stock trans last as long as possible.

post-em-up, and thanks!

Thank you sir. I appreciate the pics. Looks like the one of the fan/cooler is on the inside belly area, but maybe the pic was taken without a trans in place? Or am I way off? It was hard for me to tell. Dig the fan, I think I have 1-2 just like that too. Is that an auto? and it looks like the placement of the inlet and outlet of cooler hoses into tranny are really close. What I was trying to get rid of, or do, was pump the fluid out of the back end of my transmission(a 6 speed manual,.primarily the trannys that would have a problem with a WOT high powered acceleration and the sloshing effect,..meaning under hard load, all my fluid would sit in the back half of my trans,..with no fluid in the front half, lubricating the gears). I wanted to pump the fluid from the back, to the front, hoping to constantly keep this thing all dolled up in special sauce(tranny fluid for those FBI types).

Anyways, thats what I wanna do, and the reason why. Thanks rob,..I .appreciate it man.

The LG unit is really nice, the pinion driven pump is the right way to do it IMO, no screwing around with wiring etc. But it is pricey, I mounted the coolers behind the rear brake ducts. BTW the diff is what really generates the heat, I would cool the diff first.

I would hesitate a bit on the pinion drive unless it has some sort of gear reduction. High speed pumping + oil = cavitation and a nice Sbux mochachino froth.
