According to my General Manager we are testing a placement of the cooler with the RIPP in our shop currently and we will likely have a solution in a week or two. I will keep you guys posted.

Gus,
Just wanted to say thanks again for great sales/service on the "monster" trans cooler from ORW. I'll be leaving these 110+ degrees temps in Phoenix, AZ for the JK Experience in Colorado this weekend. Do the math- 11hrs drive thru mountains, then 7 days of heavy/hard wheeling in mountains, then drive back to Phoenix, AZ. This cooler is going to save my JK's a**! In the last month of running it around town in heavy traffic and hwy driving, the temps with your set up have been 20 degrees cooler than what I experienced with the much smaller B&M super cooler.
Thanks again brother, it was well worth the money spent.

Well Here is a prototype bracket for the trans cooler for use with the RIPP Supercharger. The Bracket will locate the cooler between the radiator and the engine. The brackets do require welding and are not bolt on. Let us know what your thoughts are on this setup.

Per the instructions it says "use washers if more clearance is required."

How much clearance should I have between the radiators and the transmission cooler?

We have been installing the kits with all the washers provided. But all you need is 1/8''-1/4'' clearance between the radiator and the cooler.

Looks like a quality set up, and I like the idea it is made in the USA, however it does seem a little pricey. I would be willing to pay extra for a product made in the USA, so I think you should go for it. The bottom line is I would buy one, please let us know.

Thanks!

Hey guys, I installed on ORW Transmission Cooler a few weeks ago.

The instructions are easy to follow and makes installing it a breeze! That unit is beefy!

JKBob,

We have installed one ORW Transmission Cooler with a RIPP Package in our shop, and just sold another one to a customer in AZ who will be installing it soon. I have some pictures that we have taken during the installation on the RIPP powered JK.

Take a look:
