ATF cooler and temp gauge recommendations

[rkubin999]

Hi folks- I am new to the forum and new to my HDJ101 japan spec LC with A442F trans. It is currently in Ireland while I am in US prepping it long distance for a Sahara and West africa expedition starting in Nov. It does not have the secondary ATF cooler, nor a temp gauge and I would like to fit both.

I read through this thread forums/showthread.php/42785-Aux-ATF-cooler-configuration/page4?highlight=automatic+transmission+cooler

and think that I will fit after the rad cooler. Question I now have is what are recommended options for both cooler and temp gauge kit? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. For the temp gauge I have heard of installing sending unit in place of stock one, but I would prefer to keep stock connection to ECU.

Thanks!

Rick.

and for the sender and gauge i used VDO gauge and sender and a mocal in-line adaptor to fit in the cooler rubber pipe inline to fit the sender in
