Im getting a b&m 26000 gvw trans cooler, I understand how to route the hoses, but I want to know THE EASIEST way to install it. I mean with the inlet/outlet barbs pointing twards the passengers side or with the inlet/outlet barbs on the cooler pointing towards the ground? I hear the zip ties dont go in easy with the barbs pointed towards the passenger side. Also, is there any additional hoses/ fittings that I will need to purchace on top of what is included with the cooler, to run the trans fluid through the stock cooler then through the b&m cooler? please help if you have been through this install on your car. thanks. Im on trans # 4 and as much as I like buying things for my car, Im getting sick of dropping the trans out of it. Id like it to last as long as possible.

 

I pointed mine toward the pass side. I didn't have a problem with the zip ties. I think I used 3/8 fuel line and worm gear clamps and split some line and ziptied it around the main line anywhere it would chaffe. Worked good and lasted a long time.

 

Thank you!
