Those heat transfer tubes they install from the factory let the tranny get to warm in my opinion. I asked a owner of a tranny shop, (who by the way was a authorized Eaton shop) what a tranny and rears should run for temp, and he said no more than 100F above outside air temp. Right or wrong IDK that is what I was told. This is what I used http://www.summitracing.com/parts/bmm-70273/overview/

Is that link to the same exact model/size cooler that you use? What are your temps usually?

I actually used a bigger one, here is the link http://www.summitracing.com/parts/bmm-70274/overview/ My temp gauge starts at 150F and it would only get to 150-160 on a really hot day pulling hard. Most of the time my gauge never even reads 150. I mounted it in front of the radiator and ran 1/2 inch hyd. hoses inside frame rail. I'm going to use the one from the first link on this truck, and mount it behind the bumper, cause I would like to see a little temp. Even though the temp gauge didn't read the tranny was warm to the touch.
