Ok, the guys on the Aussie forum tell me that it's viable to use my air con condensor as an ATF cooler.
as the air con doesnt work anyway, and what with the difficulty of getting a defunct R12 system working again I've been considering converting the compressor to supply compressed air anyway, so it's perfect.
It's already mounted under the bashplate, it already has 2 fans installed, seems plenty big enough surface area wise, and the best bit is that I have to remove it anyway, to get to the f*&%*ing ADD actuator from my 4wd post.
has anyone else done or considered doing this? ..any thoughts or tips welcome. it looks straight forward enough, I'm just going to cannibalise the air con hoses I think, remove the accumulator, re-route the pipework and top up the ATF fluid.
will also take pics and attempt to get a write up done once the big move is over.
