Installed remote transcooler, plus you can see my nappa #1422 hydraulic fluid filter that I am using as my transmission filter. Its been installed since 2006 but I disconnected (bypassed) it in 2008 and I just recently replaced the filter, cleaned the filter head and put it back into service.

Everything else, front mount cooler, cooler loop, transmission fluid thermostat, transmission temperature gauge, remote cooler fan switch.
