Auxiliary transmission cooler question
Hi,
I've been hauling a camper trailer on and off over the past month (approximately 2,000 miles) with my 2006 Lexus LX470. Dry weight of the trailer is approximately 3,800# and I've got it hooked up with a sway bar and weight distribution hitch. The engine temp warms up sometimes as I'm driving uphill at higher speeds but nothing in the red line.
My question is- is there a way to install an auxiliary transmission cooler for a 2006 LX470 and if so, is there value in it to keep the transmission/engine at better regulated temp when installing it?
thanks!
