Transmission cooler?
this may have been covered (this is almost a typical response now!) but I can't find anything.
A while back a saw somebody doing a transmission cooler for their 3rd gen tranny. I was curious if anybody knew where I could read about it/ get a write up for it.
Also, what are your opinions on this? is it needed, recommended, waste of time...?

Absolutely recommended if you do any slow-speed off roading. Crawling around through rocks, up grades, etc. will cause a good amount of strain on the tranny and limit the airflow through the radiator (which has an inner chamber for the tranny fluid as well).
The Hayden 1678 _is_ the cooler that Toyota sells under the TRD badge. Bulkpart.com sells them for $43.79 which is about 1/3 the cost of the TRD branded version:

I didn't need anything extra outside of what was included in the kit. It installed in under an hour.
Good luck!
