Thanks Bill. So that set-up would be from transmission out to the
auxiliary cooler (cooling the oil considerably), then to the cooler under
radiator (making it a little warmer) and then back to the transmission. I
have not had a case of engine overheating so far even on a very hot day, so
the transmission should be safe. I guess I was just trying to take some
preventive action.

I am not towing anything, but we do have long and winding hilly roads just
about wherever we drive on road in New Zealand. Off road, I have been more
exposed to sand and mud lately. Its an interesting experience after a week
or so of constant rain.
