Anyone running this fluid? I’m currently running a trans cooler and soon to install a power steering cooler when I rebuild my pump. Power steering system started leaking and boiling when I added 37’s. I’m sure the fluid was past due to be flushed and changed…. But I figured I’d put it off until I rebuilt the pump.

Seems like a no brained unless someone can enlighten me on why I shouldn’t run it?

You shouldn't need it. It is more important to keep temperatures down.

Fit the cooler. But first work out why it's running so hot. The only time I've seen hydraulics that bad was on a tractor that was pumping against the relief valve. Whole gearbox (which is the oil reservoir) was hot to touch.

Hoping the cooler. pump rebuild, replacing the reservoir and lines will give me a good idea what was wrong. Will know next week.
