    Default Small oil cooler roughly 20 x 10cm which cars have it?

    Hello,

    I am looking to find a car for wrecking that I can get a small oil cooler from, so I can use it as a power steering cooler on my car. Due to the limited amount of space I'm looking for something small, about 20 x 10cm. Which Cars have one that is about that size?

    Thanks.

    There are heaps of cars out there with small transmission coolers on them. A good one that I have used is one from a TP Magna.

    I have a Commodore auto trans cooler on my XX, probably about that size. I'm using it for my power steering

    What fittings do these have? Ive found that a lot of the OEM ones have 8mm fittings, and of course Toyota use 10mm fittings on the PS.

    Couple of screw fittings from memory (been while). I took the factory u-tube cooler in from memory, with the cooler and told them I wanted hosing and fittings to suit the thread of the cooler and the diameter of the factory tubing.

    It also had tabbed mounts on the sides so I was able to mount it on my aircon fan bracket just behind my intercooler piece of cake.
