Looks like it.

I will be interested to hear if it has any noticable impact on performance!

To date
yes it is in front of Intercooler which is in front of the radiator.
Sckath has advised no affect on cooling temp of jeep (no increase in engine Temp) and everything is running as it was before.
So the air is still flowing through and cooling.
Will advise if here of any changes re performance and cooling.

Its not the engine cooling I would be worried about, its the fact that after the oil cooler does its heat exchange bit it will be allowing warm air to flow past the intercooler. I thought the while idea of the intercooler is to cool the inlet charge of air. The cooler the better (cool air = more air molecules in the same space (more dense) = more fuel that can be burnt = more power....i think ) . I mean, dont get me wrong, I am all for finding a spot to mount an oil cooler as I too have a JK CRD, but in front of the intercooler ??? I don't think I would go there !

Default Which hose
nice install.
From the posts I have seen the top hose from the radiator is the return line to the transmition and is the line which should be cut. Is this correct?
I am installing a mopar cooler in the front cross member as I couldn't bring myself to put anything else up front.
Cheers......Shane

Would there be enough movement in the intercooler to allow the Trans cooler to slip behind it?
Between the radiator and the intercooler.

It says it's only 19mm thick and it appears to mount on the sides so fixings won't effect the thickness.

Default jkinfection: what model Mopar Cooler?
Hey JKInfection,
What model transmission cooler are you using. Do you have a model number so that I can order one? And do you just get these from Jeep dealerships?
