I need to repair/replace the add on trans. fluid cooler. This cooler was there when I bought the truck. Can I temporarily just combine the 2 lines going to the cooler (1 line then goes to standard radiator) in order to get to the parts store and do I even need this add-on at all ?

Hi You do not need it added likely for towing. So routing it to radiator as stock is fine. Would recomend steel line though.
Thanks for donate
