Is this an oil cooler from a ZF?

[walker]

Hi all,
I recently advertised my oil cooler from my 87 Rangie on Ebay. I recieved an email tonight from someone telling me it is not the oil cooler but the air conditioning condensor. I looked up my manual and I am pretty sure I am right and it is the auto oil cooler for the ZF but I would just like some confirmation to make sure I have it right.

thanks

Oil cooler - the condenser array is as big as the radiator. No comment on the email expert.

The only thing you should explain on the listing is that it is not interchangeable as an manual gearbox oil cooler. (Different fittings)

It is an oil cooler, but not a very good one. You can do a lot better.

He's probably one of those toyota owners on the explore oz forum who's an expert on LR's. Pat

If that was a condenser - my guess it could condense about 30 grams of refrigerant - and considering most systems use 600 - 700 grams - it would be - how do I put it - crap.

No that is definately not an ac condenser........what a twit.

As a matter of fact rovercare seeing that I have worked on the above mentioned vehicles now for about 6 years I feel that I can say I know abit about them. Pat

The snide reference wasn't for you Pat;)

Is this a hijack? So you can get a better trans oilcooler. Can anyone point me in the right direction,and, how hard would it be to fit. I believe they work at a much higher pressure than engine oil coolers.

There is another thread of mine somewhere about other oil coolers.

The ZF works at a max of 150psi so most oil coolers will easily do that. I am going to install a small cooler with thermo fan on the back of the ute.

Some of the younger blokes at work buy the boy racer mags and they have a large selection of rads,coolers,intercoolers etc for very reasonable prices.The drift cars run low speeds but work hard so alot of the stuff they use would work very well on a 4wd. Pat

The only problem with that that I have come across in recent times through the 4wd club has been the braketry and some of the welds on tanks and hose fittings can break due to the vibrations from diesel engines and corregations but yes your spot on, they are good stuff in general if you get the well built stuff or you can modify it with decent rubber mounts to soak up vibrations.


Just thought I would Highlight that part as Im likely to get burned by the we cant read but we skim brigade again.
