Neither a transmission oil cooler nor an engine oil cooler is going to
reduce excessive temperature on towing. They might prevent the transmission
and engine from burning up due to thermal breakdown of the oil, but neither
one will make the temperature gauge needle go down. Is there an aftermarket
heavy duty fan available, and is your current fan clutch in good shape?

Re: Engine Oil Cooler
 

Sounds like you need some cooling system maintenance. The usual cooling
system flush, new thermostat, possibly a new water pump. How much does
the temp gauge climb under load?

You can either take your VIN into a Jeep dealer and have them print it out

A link is on this forum thread for making an online request.

The transmission cooler is a bolt-in. It basically fits in line
with the tranny cooler that is built into the radiator. I think
the only source is OEM. you could try the folks at chryslerpartsdirect.com
