Any have any good luck out of the Tru Cool coolers? They work pretty well? Now that I have been running across the sand alot I need a better cooling system. I'm thinking about running twin 72 Plates with twin fans. I couldn't find one big solid one. I thought I would ask if they were worth the money before I buy.

I'd buy two good working used ones if anyone has any forsale.
Thanks for info guys!

They look like the Borg /Beck Mesa oil coolers that you can stand on. Care must be taken to hold the ends securely when taking fittings on and off. I use them on all my stuff.

They come with pull fans right? Hold up well to weather? Electrical wise...

You run the long or short little rubber mounting studs for the fan?

I've had one for 7 years with no issues, I use a toggle switch and a temp gauge to decide when to turn it on. How hot is your oil? Two coolers sounds like over kill..

I did this on my turbo buggy, 2-92 plate mesa coolers and a DTM fanshroud. Oil temp would barely reach 120*. I do believe that optimum oil temp is around 180*. Once I deleted the 2 mesa's my temp went up to that range. Just my experience.

How hot is it getting Boyd?

Gotta get up to a minimum of 180° to burn off the condensation in the oil.
Like Dave said, two plate coolers can be overkill.
