Tranny Cooler for 4t45e Transmission?!?

[Pontiac Driver]

Hey Guys! I have been looking high and low for a tranny cooler for the 4t45e transmission in my 2000 Grand Am SE1 and have been unsucessful as of yet.

Can anyone please direct me somewhere where I can find a cooler for this transmission with an approximate price, I noticed that a few of you guys had them.

Thanx Alot

Tranny Coolers are pretty Generic Take it to a tranny shop and they can install one for you. You dont want a massive one or elce in cooler temp's your car will not go into over drive:)

Excellent...Thank you for your help.

Any other suggestions??

Not Really You probably looking at anywhere from 100-150 dollars for this install.

[Pontiac Driver]

For the install alone or for the cooler + Install?? Also, is this price in USD?? I am canadian, that is the only reason I ask.

Thanx again.

Honestly, just go to Pepboys or Autozone or any auto parts store like that and pick up a small tranny cooler. Probably going to run $40-$50. Don't bother with the professional install, its a piece of cake... look here: http://www.grandamgt.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1263&highlight=tranny+cooler+install

Just make sure you have some good hose clamps and extra tranny fluid on-hand for the install. You'll need to stop those hoses when you're cutting and re-fill the tranny when you're done.

Something that was asked for in the posted thread link
and I didn't see was pictures. Does anybody have any pics
of the cooler mounted or how the lines were run? Would
be of some help. Thanks
