Default Q: AT Trans cooler plumbing

Installing trans cooler, all mounted and ready to plumb. The sticky post became so confusing to the point I had no idea what was goings on. I'm a tool / die maker so I'm feeling a bit embarrassed here - anyhow here's the question.

Looking down from open hood, BM cooler mounted so in / out is horizontal towards driver side. Is it top connection on BM cooler to top line on jeep or the bottom? Then obviously the other is flipped. Thanks


Edit - than I assume we leave the pieces that were cut and left unused there? Seems like it wouldn't matter but why not ask?

Ok I'm going to try to help you out , I'm a girl so I give directions better than I take them lol.. Ok if you are using the supercooler and it's installed ready to go , the top outlet on your cooler will connect to the top tranny line that has been cut, it will be connected so that it goes to the back of the jeep, the buttom line one the cooler will be ran so that it connects to the same line you just cut but it will face the front of the jeep, did this make sence?

You only use the top tranny line! You won't cut the buttom tranny line at all,

No. You are not going to eliminate the trans cooler that is in the condenser. You are going to run the new cooler in series with it and increase the cooling capacity.
