[QUOTE="Shawn White, post: 983447, member: 70197"] So my 2004 2WD Trac is currently at 102K miles, I use the truck to tow my 2800 lbm boat. The truck overall tows the boat pretty well, however my trip to the launch is a 5 mile trip. With the short trip I haven't worried much about adding an additional tranny cooler in series to keep temps down, as I rarely exceed 45 MPH while towing. I'm now planning on venturing to some lakes in central Texas from Houston (If the ever fill back up...), so I'm like to add an cooler in series to maintain lower towing temps. I wont be towing this much distance every weekend so I'm debating between two different B&M coolers. The first is a 7500 BTU cooler, 1 , by 11 1/2, by 3 inch. I've seen some posts on this cooler and figured it would help lower temps without worrying about over cooling during cooler months or while not towing. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/BMM-70265/ The second cooler is a 15000 BTU cooler, 1 1/2, by 11 1/2, by 5 3/4 inch. This cooler would probably cover me while towing and would fit in front of the radiator nicely as well. Although, I would probably have to work on making some installation mounts as the larger cooler would tend to flex more and need better support on the side not mounted directly to the frame. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/BMM-70273/ Any opinions are greatly appreciated. Price between the two is about the same so the cost really isn't a factor. Thanks, Shawn [/QUOTE]
