Re: R21 Cooler system pictures ?

I set up an oil cooler on my off-road buggy. I had a Medeola garbox and the fluid smelled burnt after a race. Tapped the bottom of the case drew thru a filter and used a small pump. I drew thru a filter to protect the pump. Went thru a small cooler and then into the bearing in the nose cone. We had problems with that bearing failing on early Mendeolas. The temp drop was huge. I cant remember how much but the fluid after a race did not smell and looked clean. We had no more problems with the bearing. At a later date Mendeola upgraded to a larger bearing for the fix.
