I looked for days to find the answer :( Sorry for the new thread.
I replaced my radiator and noticed that my tranny output cooling line is flowing into the bottom of my radiator and my tranny cooling return line is coming out the top. Is that backwards? Seems like the tranny lines should be hot into the top of the rad and cooled liquid out the bottom. Or would this be backwards? Im confused. Did my lines get put on backwars at the trans? ty soo much for the endless info this sight has to offer. You guys are awsome.
 
The radiator both cools in summer and heats in winter the transmission fluid. The fluid enters the radiator from the transmission on the bottom where the antifreeze is the coolest then exits the radiator on top where the antifreeze is the warmest.
