5.7L Transmission Cooler Kits

Sorry for the double post - I forgot there was a thread for the trans coolers.

How tight do the push lock fittings and the M22 to 6AM adapters need to be? And how do you get them tight but pointing in the right direction?

I started off snug but keep getting a small leak. Tweaked it a few times got faster leaks.

I’ve now tightened them to about as tight as I can get them with the push locks pointing in the right direction. I may need to top off the transmission fluid before another check run.

Story
I wanted to be cool (pun intended) like many others so I purchased a trans cooler kit from Genuine Cooling Systems. It’s been a while since I ordered but it’s been stupid hot here in SE GA until the last couple weekend.

The install has gone pretty smoothly up until now. I can’t seem to get these fittings sealed. Any help would be much appreciated. I’m afraid of over torquing and stripping something out or yanking the hose loose from the other end.

 

Anyone install this that has the TSS relocation kit from ajt? Does everything still fix properly

 

I dont have an AJT but looking at the pictures on their site, it mounts to the same hole that you relocate the horn to so you would have to either remove the horn or relocate it else where. First pic is from AJTs site and second pic is my trucks cooler, its the 20 row that they offered while the 15s where out of stock, so its a bit wider than the ones currently for sale.

 

Wow thanks for looking into that I'm sure I can move horn somewhere else I guess I'm more concerned about it interfering with sensor functionality the sensor already doesn't work that great there's gotta be someone out there that has installed both cooler and sensor relocation bracket

Kit ordered, thanks!

 

Worked when I tried it again…

 

Do you have an ETA on kit that fits 2016 tundra?

 

Also for a 2020?

 

Has anyone heard from the OP?

 

Whoops… never mind. Misunderstood your question

 

Hey, we have discontinued the kits for the 2016 due to low sales. We may bring them back in the future if demand increases.

 

We should have a few kits in stock tomorrow afternoon and then some more on Tuesday/Wednesday. Unfortunately, Toyota parts supply chains have slowed down. We are trying our best to keep them in stock.

 

All kits will now include a bluetooth OBD adapter from Veepeak. This is the model of the adapter - https://www.veepeak.com/product/obdcheck-ble/

Thank you all for your support!

 

Great product to anyone in question. I’m glad I had the opportunity to purchase this kit several months back. Best of luck with supply chain issues.

 

Damn. Do you know any other companies that make them? Could you do a special order?

 

Thanks definitely will order.

 

We may do a limited run later this spring or summer. I’ll keep you all posted.

 

Thank you I appreciate that!!

 

Installed mine this past weekend, very happy to see 185-195F temps at highway speeds now where I was up in the 220-230F range before (without the trailer hooked up!)
Awesome kit. The videos out there are helpful to understand the basics but I found the PDF instructions on the GCS web site had more details and were easier to follow when doing the install. I didn't find the hard lines to be difficult at all once I knew where the two bolts needed to land. I put the push-lock fittings (for connecting to the cooler) on dry and without clamps, and torqued the AN fittings at the cooler using the flats method.. pretty slick. More details on that here:

I do need one of these but boy the price shot through the roof since I looked a couple of years ago! Im getting ready to tow a bigger trailer and might have to bite the bullet though. Definitely looks better quality than the Amazon specials Ive used in the past

 

You can search the for marketplace here. Occasionally people are selling them.

Note: These sales have not been due to a GCS related reason. More seller specific circumstances.

Full kit, 15 row, $900 shipped. Someone jump on it.

 

I can vouch for that seller, he did purchase this kit. This might be the best deal of 2024, someone looking for a deal should jump on this!

 

OP if we put together a group, would you extend a discount if you could leverage that onto your parts purchases?
