Does the transmission oil flow through the radiator from the top line to the bottom or vice versa. Is the out flow from the bottom or from the top? I'm installing a transmission cooler.
 
at least he wont make it on to the highway and kill anyone else when his brakes give out or when the rear subframe rips its self loose from the weight of the truck and trailer
 
Wait... that's why the username looked familiar. This is the guy who tows pick-up truck worthy loads with his cars?!

Oh dear God... it is you!

It doesn't matter.

I want to take the out flow and and plumb it into the transmission cooler.

The question is again. Does the transmission oil flow through the radiator from the top line to the bottom or vice versa? Is the out flow from the bottom or from the top?
 

Wow, lots of conflicting information.

The following says the out flow is from the lower fitting.

And the article from tccoa.com says it's from the top.

Which is correct?
 
it truly doesn't matter if you must add one just totally bypass the radiator all together.
but i still stand by my previous statement.
 
Just run one line to your arse and the other to your vag and let her flow!
 
Transmission cooler has been installed. I ended up using a barb fitting on the out flow of the radiator.
