COOLER LOCATION
COOLER INSTALLATION
The purpose of a remote mount cooler is to be able to mount the cooler away from
the front of the vehicle therefore not blocking airflow to the radiator/condenser.
This cooler can be mounted anywhere space permits. Always keep in mind that the
cooler still needs access to airflow to perform at its peak.
1. Identify the two -8AN x 7/8” Male Adapters.
2. Install the fittings onto the cooler with the o-ring side toward the cooler.
Thread sealant is not necessary on o-ring fittings.
3. Using a 1 1/8” Open End Wrench, tighten fittings.
4. Hold the Oil Cooler Assembly in the desired location.
5. Using a marker, mark the four hole locations.
6. Using a drill and 9/32” drill bit, drill the four mounting holes.
7. Identify the 1/4”-20 x 1” Bolts, 1/4” Washers & 1/4” Lock Nuts supplied and
attach the Oil Cooler Assembly.
Note:

Please read these instructions completely before starting the installation.

thread sealant.
IMPORTANT
IN-LINE THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION
Mounting Location
There are two options for installing the In-Line Thermostat.
1. Cooler inlet installation
2. Hose installation
The recommended location for the In-line Thermostat Fitting is on the INLET side
of the oil cooler, so the oil line that provides the cooler fluid from the transmission.
Always use two wrenches when tightening the In-line Thermostat Fitting to
the oil cooler; failure to use a back up wrench could cause damage to the cooler core.
The In-line Thermostat Fitting is provided with a -8AN male and female threads.
a) Attach the In-line Thermostat Fitting onto the INLET fitting on the oil cooler.
b) Using Loctite or suitable sealant, carefully HAND TIGHTEN
the
Thermostat Switch clockwise onto the In-line Thermostat .
Do not use a wrench or damage to the Thermostat Switch could occur.
The kit provides two brass fittings that are only used with this option. They are
designed to adapt the AN fittings to hose barbs.
a) Using the -8AN Male x 1/2” Barb Fitting provided, attach the fitting
to the female side of the In-line Thermostat Fitting.
b) Using the -8AN Female x 1/2” Hose Barb Fitting provided, attach the
fitting to the Male Adapter now installed on the cooler.
c) Using the OEM Spec Hose and Hose Clamps provided, cut the hose to
the desired length and attach one end of the hose to the oil cooler inlet
and the other to the In-line Thermostat.
