Yeah, the owner of the shop is a pretty straight up guy...since I was going to be taking the check valve out of the cooler line anyway, I asked him his opinion on it. He said that on the Ram trucks, he prefers to delete the whole stock trans cooling system and go aftermarket.

Yeah thank goodness...I know most people delete the check valve on the gen 2's and I never got around to doing it. When I told the guy I still had it on there, he laughed and asked why I never took it out.

So Colton, if you still have your check valve in your trans line, look into removing it.

coming off the radiator you have two lines that go to the transmission...the TOP one, has the check valve in it. To delete it, you need to get a quick connect tool to get the line off the radiator, then get two wrenches and take the rubber line off the metal line...then you get some hose clamps and about 2 feet of transmission hose from the parts store and attach it in the spot you removed the the old line from.
