Default Tranny cooler

So I am
Looking to put a tranny cooler in my 2011 jeep 4 door wrangler. I was looking under the hood tonight to see what I need. The tranny lines go to what appears a giant radiator could that be a cooler ? It's stock fully loaded with tow package etc. did keep put them in ? Or is that for something else ?
Thanks
Dave

The stock transmission cooler is only the small bottom portion of what you saw as the "giant radiator". The largest part of it is the a/c condenser.

I'm looking at doing this also, ASAP . The dealer told me today that I'm looking at about $800 for them to do it. I don't want to chance any problem for the future. there has to be a cheaper way.

You can do it yourself for as little as $70. (Maybe even less.)
The MOPAR cooler is about $260, and is an easy, clean install.
