Transmission cooler?
I have a 03 chevy Tahoe that I am planning on pulling a 21' toyhauler travel trailer. The question I have is shouldI install a transmission after market cooler to prevent possible damage?

RE: Transmission cooler?
Welcome to the Tahoe forum.
Kind of depends on the tow weight but it couldn'thurt anything to have one IMO. Might check w/ Chevy parts as I think it was an option but not sure. I know for the 07+ there's one available.

Here's the GM part number for the '07 Tahoe: #12497071
It'll run you $80-90.
You could probably get it off ebay
Edit: I just ran over there....Here's what I found
