Hi folks- new to the forum, and new 2001 LC 100 owner. Vehicle is a Japan spec TD, currently in Ireland. Will be collecting it shortly to start an overland expedition through Sahara and West Africa. It has been modded for overlanding, but has stock auto trans. I understand that there were some isolated issues with the trans in 2000 models? My question is, should I look at installing an aftermarket trans cooler to handle the load/heat? We will be doing extended solo travel on Sahara pistes and sand with deflated tires - it could literally be life threatening to have the trans fail, even with GPS beacon. Is the stock cooler up to task? Should I install trans temp gauge?
Thanks, Rick.
Thanks, Rick.
