Enter the part number I listed above in the "Search by Factory Part Number" box and select Ford in the "Select Make" box on this page...

Thanks so much man!! I'm sure it'll be way cheaper than buying one already pieced together for over $200.

That was a very imformative post. Maybe sometime in the future I will tackle this project. This tranny cooler should help us Florida guys out. We need all the cooling ability possible down here. Stop and go traffic during the summer raises my tranny temps to around 180 degrees, sometimes more. I change my tranny fluid once a year, no matter what mileage because of the heat and humidity. I'll usually get around to it during late fall after it has cooled off some. It might seem like overkill but heat is the number one killer of transmissions.

Awesome how-to! That looks like a lot of work but it's probably well worth it. I look forward to your "Line Loc" how-to as I need to do this to my truck.
