Indeed. Wow that is robbery. Contact Paul Grant or Abran. Or look in eBay. You need an oil cooler or a transmission cooler (both work... get the biggest) and the hard lines (metal hoses with fittings), a 22mm wrench, a 13 and a 10 mm socket, and a box of o rings. And maybe a screwdriver.

It is crap like that that makes people just walk away from land rovers.

It will take 2 hours your first time only because you need to get to the radiator. At most.

That's absurd.

 

how come nobody took pics of the factory install?? I'm sitting here pissed off at 12:30 AM, still 1-hour away from home using family's garage and have to be up for work at 5am. Oh its a 40-minute install..
Have been working on this **** since 5pm and only got one line threaded from driver side to the bottom of cover. Never did get the passenger side to thread in. They are the factory lines, I'm using the 2 ports that had the 2 large bolts plugged in. The passenger side line seems like the end is too short to fit into the orifice or something of that nature. Now I have to unscrew the one that took me 2 hours to get in, plug it back up so I can get home. sucks.

 

Driver side pipe. If this is where it even goes

 

This is where I was trying to go with the pass side pipe. But it wouldn't go in there

 

The end of the pass side pipe. Good condition but felt like it wasn't going in far enough on that port up and behind the oil filter. I did get it to thread in on the same port that I originally had the driver side pipe plugged in to down at the very bottom of the cover so it's not the pipe

 

Pipe I tried to run on pass side. Tight of fit as it may be, it sure seemed like I had each pipe in its respective location. I had to tweak that one on the driver side a few times to get it JUST right, but the other side wasn't goin to take it.

 

A few pictures might go a long way. I searched the web numerous times unable to find anything helpful. Thanks guys.

 

Sorry, all my pics got lost with last phone.

From memory the driver side of the one with the hard line that has the most drastic bend and to fits in the 6 o clock port.

The other one is the pass side. If I recall there are two plugs on that side that could take it, but maybe not.

I install each one on the front cover first, then army teach the push connectors on the cooler.

Have you searched RAVE for images?

 

I did look through RAVE. Very minimal info there regarding the cooler. I did get the driver side routed kind of up between the engine and power steering pump, then made the connection at that very bottom 6'oclock plug over that trans cooler pipe, after an hour of careful tweaks and bends. The passenger side pipe I could not get connected on that other plugged outlet higher up behind the oil filter. I attacked it at any angle possible but it wouldn't go all the way in there. I tried tweaking it several times but after a few HOURS I had to throw in the towel. Something so minor....
There were 2 plugs in the adapter. A bottom and top and that's where I was trying to go. I noticed another place at the top with a cap instead of a plug. Do you know how those come off? I'm pretty far from my next oil change so I can't just pull the adapter off to work it over and get a better look at what I'm trying to do. May be easier with an auto lift but I don't have that luxury so visibility is too limited

 

So you think the port to the right (more toward front of vehicle) that has cap instead of bolt serves the same purpose? Anybody?
