I was looking my truck over and initially I thought I had an extra cooler up front, but it appears that it's dead end lines??? They come from the trans and connect to the top of the A/C condenser. How does this work? The fluid can't possibly be the same, can it? The condenser doesn't appear to be divided into 2 coolers.

If you look closely on the replacement for 2011-2018 the unit is actually seperate as 2 coolers.

Very interesting, I was at a loss. I'm going to have another look and see if I can tell where it changes. That Vararam intake covers it completely.
Thank you.

The trans cooler has been in the top part of the A/C condensor for years.As stated by CD they're 2 seperate coolers,but built as 1 complete module

Yup my 07 had the stack pack of coolers lol

Is this what you mean by "stack pack" lol
I am investigating whether I have an added transmission cooler (since I tow TT) but I have never seen a vehicle with this many coolers.

I have 4 on the left, the large one is the engine coolant (and possibly trans cooler from what I am reading)

But I am really lost as to what color does what? Are there any manuals or any guidance on what all i may have installed here? 2006 Ram SLT 1500 4.7 (3.55 gears)
