I"m going to add trans cooler to my FJ60 - I'm looking for recommendations. Are they all the same? This would probably be mounted under the body near the transmission. Needs to have integral fan.
 
Swapped in auto tranny in your 60?
 
Yes, sorry - 5.3 with 4L60
 
Just about any well made tranny cooler kit with an integrated fan will work. Obviously there are poorer quality ones but most are just fine.

All I would do is Make damn sure that a rock can't pierce it, and that there is a heat sensitive valve that allows the tranny to heat up properly before the cooler is engaged (which is probably a non issue in California but..)
 
You already have lines that run up to the radiator from the trans, why not add the cooler up front :) No adding a fan (more maintenance) with constant clear air flow. Cooler on the left is the trans cooler, right is PS cooler
