Derale trans cooler install questions

[latrucker]

I am in the process of installing a Derale Hypercool 13960 trans cooler and was wondering if there are any of you that have installed it that can tell me what fittings I will need before I start. I am mounting the cooler under the passenger seat on the exterior of the Bronco. Going to run the outlet from the trans to the radiator tank cooler (top port) then to the Hypercooler then to the inlet on the transmission. Running all 6AN stainless braided hose with 6AN fittings everywhere. Can anyone who has plumbed theirs in a similar fashion tell me what degree fittings they used coming out of the trans (45, 90, or straight) in order to clear the trans and the tunnel. I am running a 1" body lift so that should help with the tunnel clearance. Also, what degree fitting was used on the inlet (top) of the radiator (90 or 45). Motor and trans are out of the bronco right now so it is hard for me to judge and I wanted to gather all my parts before I start. Thanks!!

I used the c4 AN fittings from wild horses, all straights on my setup. I'd rather loop a hose then have a 90 degree fitting.

I used 45 degree hose ends at the trans. but there is plenty of space to use straight ends.

Depends on where you have the inlet/outlet placed on the cooler. I used 45 and straight AN off the tranny.

If your going to run to the radiator first. put the input on the lower part and the outpur on the upper. this way it fills competely so oyou wont have any air in the lines.

Cool. I ran mine directly to the battery so it would stay on after I shut the engine off. Then the thermostat shuts the fan off when the fluid is cool.
