4runner tranny cooler 3rd gen (with tow package)

Ok, well my a/t oil temp light came on the other day. I read http://experts.about.com/q/Toyota-Re...ansmission.htm here that i should have two transmission coolers already though because i have the tow package. I know that i have the regular one on the bottom of the radiator, but do i really have a second one? and if i do where is it?

I have a feeling i really only have one, and it would be a good idea to get a second one. But i am not really sure if there was a seperate tow package that included a second cooler, and the package i have does or doesn't.

Thanks

I don't have a seperate transmission cooler for my tow package.

I think I got jipped. (Not that I bought the 4R originally, but, you know..)

That info on there is not correct. I have the towing package and the only cooler that came with that was the one built into the bottom of the radiator. Now TRD did offer a cooler (similar to the Hayden) you could install, but that was extra. That is why so many have added a cooler later and you see all the install writeups for them.

Tow package here, no extra cooler.

I installed the Hayden with my 35's and I like

What is the biggest cooler you can add? Im looking into doing a 1UZFE swap into my '98 4Runner and if I did that I would also swap in an auto tranny so the ECU works properly. But I will need a big tranny cooler because of the extra power.

Thanks
