Hey guys! Been on here for a while now, such a great source of information! Never posted though but now I figured I'd actually get some help as I cannot find the answer outright.
I have an '06 OR with 121k and am just now hearing about SMOD. Luckily, I don't have any of the symptoms yet, no vibrations when the X shifts into overdrive and no foam on the radiator cap and coolant is still green!
BUT here is my question (which may be obvious but I couldn't find the answer to, so sorry if this is a stupid question), by doing the bypass, will I still be running the factory external tranny cooler? or does it bypass the radiator and cooler all together? If so how can I re route it to run the factory tranny cooler? I tow quite frequently, (small boat, small car, 2 jet skis, or a small-ish covered trailer) also the summers where I live get over 105 degrees so the external cooler is pretty important.
Thanks for you input (and forgiving my ignorance)!!
