Interested in Trans cooler

Ok so I'm sitting at the 200K mark and never installed a trans cooler. Bored one day I was reading about the strawberry milkshake deal. Havent done much to strain or overwork the trans but for the small investment and project I wouldnt mind just adding.

I checked out the below TRD one for about $185ish but are there others that are just as good quality that aren't TRD.

I just did this myself. I got a B&M from amazon for around $60.00 install was pretty straightforward.

Yes, Tru-Cool, B&M, etc. kits are much cheaper and provide excellent performance.

Mucho threads around here on the topic.

I just installed a Hayden kit on my '99 SR5. Easy. The most difficult part was removing the grill for access to the radiator.

I'd stick with Tru-Cool, B&M for the built-in bypass for cold weather. Hayden/TRD don't have that design last I looked.
