Tranny cooler questions

Okay so I'm thinking it's getting to be time to save up for a tranny cooler. Any recommendations as to brand, capacity, dimensions, and any of these things?

get the biggest one you can find (and fit in your jeep) and plumb it in before the radiator cooler, if you leave it hooked up it will keep your tranny from getting too cold in the winter (yes they can get to cold)... if you want to go cooler you could mount a 10 inch electric fan on a switch on the cooler that could be used when wheeling or towing and shut off in the winter or normal driving to avoid over cooling your tranny

i used the b&m supercooler tranny cooler model 70268 and it has been awesome...its rated for 19000lb/gvw..that was big enough for me...and it has a built in bypass so that the oil is only cooled when it needs to be...jason from jeepin.com did a writeup on the install..thats what i used..good luck..
