Hey, so my old radiator basically was already cracked. I put a new coat of J-B stick on to cover the cracks. I just ordered a Silla radiator. Is that all I need to install it? or will I need to order other parts?

Are you in Florida year around? If you are then you should be perfectly fine running a trans cooler separate. Even if its cooler weather I can not see an issue running a separate trans cooler. It just might take an extra minute or two for the trans fluid to come up to temp.


So, I would say you are fine either way by running a transmission cooler.
