You would, of course, cool the return line which operates at atmospheric.

Re: Plugging A/T lines on replacement TJ radiator???
The high pressure side operates in the area of 1500-1800 psi and requires
special high pressure hoses with tapered fittings.
The low pressure side uses standard oil resistant hose and has only a
simple spring clamp to prevent it from falling off.

Re: Plugging A/T lines on replacement TJ radiator???

Re: Plugging A/T lines on replacement TJ radiator???
The low side is bigger around than the radiator tank ATF cooler though. Now
what you are contemplating is a restriction more than it is a cooler.

Long as you use the return side pressure wouldn't be an issue, but
