Picked up 20l drum of GW for $162.80. Not bad hey. Gonna do a steel pan conversion whilst I'm doing the fluid change

So Jet you've been running the furious kit hey. How have you found it.
I've been looking at this one from fleabay
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/AUTOMATIC-TRANSMISSION-OIL-COOLER-FORD-TERRITORY-6-SPEED-AUTO-ZF-BYPASS-GEARBOX-/121147196333?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c34ef83ad&_uhb=1.

Send a few messages to other members on there and no members have had any issues with it.

Also received this reply from the seller

"Hi theres alot of transmissions that come out with original brass fittings,and I have been doing transmissions for over 30 years and ive never seen any with corrosion on them,the fittings don't restrict oil flow at all...."

Im just a bit concerned about the furious kit joining lines

My zf is still 100% imho

A few do not like air/air coolers for the zf, I do understand why but my proof is enough that makes me very happy with the path ive chosen

Also it is not recommended that smaller ID pipe/connectors are used, but again iam more than happy with the operation of my zf

There is always more than one way to skin a cat but its up to the individual if something goes wrong when u take the path less chosen...

Again mines 100%

I used the same kit as jets and mounted it up front (a little neater then his) I used genuine oil and mine was all sweet for the time I had it, no leaks ect.

Jet,

On doing a ZF service, can you use a thermal heat gun for getting the right trans temp or is better to use torque app?

Appreciate the advice.

Both work well take your pick, just last night we used the thermal gun on doms ute to top up the zf after the cooler install
