Apparently the power steering and trans fluids share a cooler? Well that's what broke. And the dealer doesn't have one in stock. Should be in tomorrow and dad's taking me to pick up rex Wednesday morning :) I just hope the tow truck driver didn't slaughter the rear bumper.

The lines that run into the rad warm up the fluid :)

The cooler on the 3/4s runs up front, down load...sometimes it's just a tube, or finned, both finned,...it's a mix match. Calling it a cooler is kind of silly. It does a barely adequate job.

It's the Power Steering system's 'maybe not so hot as before... ?' tube. ^_^

OK. Figured it out. The transmission fluid runs through one "cooler" and the power steering through another "cooler". They are separate tubes, but are connected together with brackets and is one single car part.

It's been replaced and Rex is home :)
