Question What's the best aftermarket cooler for a 4R70W?

I have a 98 F-150 4x4 with no aux tranny cooler. I tow my quads on a trailer. The package weighs about 2,500 lbs. I need a tranny cooler. What's a good cooler for me? How much $ am I lookin at here? Where can i get one from? I will install the cooler myself. Thanks

Cool

HI!... JUSTINMAN : I installed a PERMA-COOL 10 INCH x 14 INCH tranny cooler on my truck. (PART# PRM-3311). I got it from SUMMIT RACING and paid $98.00(U.S) for it. These are top notch coolers. I have 2 of them on my "83" PRO STREET RANGER in my SIG below. I used RUSSELL stainless steel braided lines and AN fittings on all tranny lines. I also installed a SUMMIT 10 INCH electric fan on the cooler. (PART# SUM-G4910) It cost $75.99(U.S) and I wired it to a manual switch mounted in my tranny temp guage pod. Hope this helps you out.
