Hi. Do not run the transmission without a cooler! If you do, you will potentially destroy your transmission within a few minutes of driving. The heat generated without a cooler is incredible and it won't take long for the fluid to boil. It's not a question of if, but more so when. As for the parts including cooler, i have a friend in Canberra who is about to sell parts off his '90 (i think) LTD. he is not a wrecker, so should be quite reasonable on price. I'm not sure where you are, but i live in Sydney and will be visiting him over Easter if you need the parts in Sydney. Hope this helps.

I assume the oil cool you are referring to is the auto. transmission oil cooler. No you do not have to run through the radiator, but you should use some sort of cooler. You can buy a separate air cooler and install this and not use the radiator oil cooler. These do not cost very much. For the other pars just go to a auto wrecking yard and pick up what you need

It's probably an after market add on. If it's hooked to an adapter under the oil filter, you can remove that adapter and lose the cooler. About the only LTDs that need oil coolers are police models and ones that tow things.
