Finned tranny pan?

[Triathlete]

Thanks Dub...that is pretty much what I have been finding in my searches. Rebuild parts I will leave up to the rebuilder. There are quite a few special tools needed to rebuild them so I will leave it up to the "experts" when the time comes. I am going to put an external cooler on but thought the extra, extra cooling would be good.

Billy, have you had the AT high temp light come on? Mine did on the trip to Moab, on the Sunset Point hill and the hill between Sedona and Flagstaff. Didn't give me a lick of trouble on the trails though. This is the very first time the lights ever come on. I figure it's the bigger tires combined with the supercharger power increase.

Will be doing a front end job on my Dragon, just gathering up the parts. But while I'm in there, going to mount up a tran's cooler and maybe a heavier duty fan. Am contemplating a move to the southwest so want to keep things cool,... as I can.

In theory...

This could be so crazy, it just might work.

Was just thinking about this & came up with an "outside the box" solution.

Why not make your own?

With aluminium angle, bonded to your tranny pan, with thermal conductive epoxy...

Too much work Dub...I'll just go with a good cooler.

Kirk, yes...on the way to Show Low which caused my temp to go way north on every hill! Did not like that.

Row...where abouts in the SW you looking at?

Not sure Billy, loved NM when I was stationed there, but have never been to Vegas, just not sure if we can take the heat. 13 years in England, and 22 here in western Washington and Sandy having lived here all her life. Sure would be nice to get dried out and feel some flexibility in the joints though

Talk to some racers around there. Would think they would know a fabricator that could knock one up in no time. They build pans for them all the time.

If the trans pan on my VX had fins on it . They would be no more, after a trip to Moab . Just saying.
