I cant believe somebody hasn't used any -AN fittings or hose. I have seen a install with aircraft quality hose and fitting and was impressed enough to do the same setup. The hoses and fittings will run a person $100 bucks but if its good enough for the aircraft industry then its good enough for a Jeep!! My wife drives our Jeep so extra mechanical insurance is what I shoot for.

I guess you haven't been following this thread. Look a couple pages back. There is a photo and parts list. Post # 383 and 389.
I just ordered some AN fittings from Aircraft Spruce to do it a little differently.

Here is a write-up I did on my Cooler install
I used a cooler w/ fan and ANS fittings and stainless braided hoses. It works like a champ.

Not the cheapest way to go, but I don't regret any of it. It looks awesome and works perfectly.

I'm in the process of converting my factory crimp lines to all AN fittings.

Instant results: a 20 minute drive of mixed fwy/city driving showed good results. Outside temp of 91 the tranny never got above 172 and stayed around 168 once on the fwy. Normally 180s would be normal for a day like today. (Temps monitored through BullydogGT)

Highway driving in 86 degrees, the tranny temp dropped to 144-146. Pulling the new popup camper home from the dealer, same outdoor temp, with the OD off and a mix of stop and go traffic and hwy, showed temps in the 150s.

I got mine installed today, if you want to do this dont put it off its not hard, like someone stated above mounting the brackets was the hardest part and even that wasnt to bad..
