See Dave and Eric at Broken Axle, Eric installed the gears and locker in my 9" a couple of years ago and I've never had a problem since!

Bill or Bnine on the board here has been helping members for years and years, including gearsets.

I'd send him a PM and ask,

Expensive.
I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...

Burned me twice (gave them a second chance, and they STILL overcharged me and wouldn't cover under warranty).
