Where is your temperature sending unit mounted?...

I tapped into the standard trans cooler line that exits the radiator. So I guess it's on the return line? I've been out in Death Valley in the winter with *strong* cold winds blowing into the radiator and have never seen the trans temp get above 120 degrees and that's at slow trail speeds.
