i got a hole in the tranny cooler and NAPA cant get any. who has the cheapest? im new to autos so can i put an auxilliary cooler on it and just take the stock on off or do i need a stock one too? part number? is there an aftermarket one for near the same price? i need my truck for work so any help would be great appreciated!

Thanks

My bet is a radiator shop can fix the old one.

I doubt a shop can fix it. It's aluminum and very thin and it doesnt weld very well

If you do go to an aftermarket replacement, make sure the tube size is the same or larger. You don't want to cut down on flow. Just to make sure, you are talking about the cooler outside of the radiator and not the internal one?

Depends on where the hole is.
Need more details.
If the hole is just though one tube in the core you can sometimes just fold the tube back on itself several times for a very reliable fix.
