Glenn's Auto Performance TruCool 40K Bracket and Line Install & Review

[@Stevehevessy]

Great video, Glens auto performance has everything for the Silverado

[@jorges2000]

Looks good. Cant go wrong with an upgraded ATF cooler.

[@nymack66]

Great video and details, I am about to pull the trigger on my Silverado 06, 269k miles on the tranny, and only one tranny oil change since new. Runs and shifts like new even with the 5,000 Boat on the hitch.

[@nevinpurbaugh9934]

Great job on the I stall! My question is since you completely bypassed the radiator, what is the Trans temp in the winter time? I'm looking to do this mod to my 04 avalanche 5.3 but am concerned out the winter time temps. Thank you!

[@ridered7262]

Anyone else hear the ghost at 15:40. Nicely done!

[@calebneaveill711]

So what actual trans temp are you running now?

[@mrhighway]

Would you recommend putting a direct trans line to the cooler and bypass the radiator?

[@OldGriz708]

I run through the radiator as well as the 40k. The thing that keeps it cool is as much the fluid volume and bypassing the radiator reduces total possible volume.

[@daviddenman7479]

I just installed a new 6.0 along with a bunch of new parts including a new radiator in my 2500hd. I looked for a way to run a aftermarket cooler and couldn’t find any good options. I’ll be looking into this. Thanks.

[@fredonthecuttzent.8405]

I just ordered this whole set up for my 04 tahoe. I have a question? Are you able to mount the cooler with the hose fittings up with the gap bracket? And have you heard about this cooler not being self bleed so mounting the cooler like the factory one causing the 40k cooler to only use half? I'm wondering is that is true?

[@casheighty8]

Very true. Countless people mount these upside down and only use 25% of the cooler which is a waste of cooling and money

[@fredonthecuttzent.8405]

@@casheighty8 ok good cause I mounted it up fittings upwards.

[@joerivas9847]

@@fredonthecuttzent.8405 I guess the engineers who made it dont know what they are talking about. Go to their website, they say can be mounted whichever way.

[@codiehall5565]

Did you ever install the cold weather bypass? I just recently bought the kit myself and was interested in doing it.

[@davek556]

Nice upgrade!!!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@trevorbland99]

Thinking about installing this same set up. How are the temps driving in winter and summer with the radiator bypassed?

[@seangowan7441]

What headers you got? What's your setup?

[@jabenross5986]

Good video, good information! I noticed when you get up there is little to no grunting. You’re so agile

[@josemuniz9355]

So did u just cap the radiator trans ports ? I didn't see what u did there.

[@EndlessWishlist]

Yup just used some hose and plugged the inlet into the outlet.

[@mrhighway]

This lines are heavy duty will not cause leak?

[@tonyy33055]

BIHH CLEANNNN 🙌🏾👌🏾🤘🏾👍🏾✊🏾💯🔥.. P.s I like this kit better then LsxMatt 😬.

[@oddjuan6158]

How did you bleed the system for any air? Also how much fluid did you use to fill it back up?

[@EndlessWishlist]

It has a pump. It doesn’t need to be bled.

[@oscarjones5773]

@@EndlessWishlist hydraulics have pumps and need bleeding.

[@ryanteixeira6449]

So much easier to cut the two hard lines and flare and bend the hard lines they sell at the parts store. The stainless line looks cool though.

[@GETaYOTA]

$250 for that little kit and you have to zip tie lines. I’ll just use oe lines rather. that’s insane money for brackets and some lines essentially

[@HOLAATODOS-os5te]

Each their own!

[@juangamboa8681]

What do you do the main radiator where the transmission lines were hooked up?

[@EndlessWishlist]

Plugged them off

[@juangamboa8681]

@@EndlessWishlist what exactly should i use?

[@egghead1093]

@@EndlessWishlist I asked Glenn the same question. Maybe just twist off the quick connects and screw in a barbed fitting, attach a small nipple of hose, and screw a bolt into the hose to seal it off. How did you do it.

[@EndlessWishlist]

If I remember correctly the trucool kit came with 2 barbed fittings that fit the radiator. Then just got a small piece of hose and looped them together

[@egghead1093]

@@EndlessWishlist I see, you just plumed them together.

[@djzomb1]

any rebate codes for glenns auto performance?

[@mateoarellano3193]

How much was everything?

[@rbarger71]

I am amazed(not really) that some people actually think bypassing the transmission cooler that is in the radiator is the way to go. SMH

[@Ramiro2x]

Why?

[@patricksturgis774]

Yea why?

[@CharlieWayneAdventures]

The cooler in the radiator should not be bypassed in the northern states/Canada, and up there they should be running the aftermarket cooler with the thermostat. Otherwise your transmission would never warm up when it's -10, -20, -50 below.

[@Mr_Ruhl]

@@CharlieWayneAdventures the built in LPD feature should take care of that no?

[@casheighty8]

In areas where there are no winters it may suffice but anywhere where there will be cold driving the radiator should not be bypassed. Transmissions don’t like cold fluids and the 40k cooler has a kit that comes with a thermal bypass installed pre-cooler with the intention of sending cold trans fluid back to the transmission for reheating.

[@freebird03271968]

Why would they use the radiator if it didn't work? Keep it goin thru the radiator. The fans cool the radiator

[@nymack66]

Because if you live in Florida as I do, no need to heat your transmission oil, hence the reason for the cooler upgrade.

[@CharmleysChopShop]

I wish you got some clearer video of the fittings and hose coming off the transmission. Very dark i couldn't see anything

[@anthonybrooks5960]

Did the bracket kit come with the lines and fittings?

[@EndlessWishlist]

You can buy them separately or as a package.

[@joseignaciorivas468]

Where can you buy the true cool fittings?? What website???? Please help

[@unknowndirection458]

great video

[@bbdbkd]

What trans pan do you have?

[@EndlessWishlist]

Hughes deep pan

[@mrhighway]

Any update? is run cooler now?

[@EndlessWishlist]

Yes running right where it should.

[@rickcrain8685]

You have it upside down, it will have an air pocket in that radiator!

[@EndlessWishlist]

The trans has a pump in it. After a few seconds it will be fine. This is how they come from the factory.

[@OldGriz708]

The instructions are just some other guys opinion 😂
