Rear Diff cooler installed

Not sure many will be interested, but I pieced together a rear diff cooler setup and got it installed today.

I have blown out axle seals a couple times, and I'm thinking it's partially heat related, since I run the car hard. Plus keeping fluids cooler is generally good anyways. This is absolutely not a mod for the street, since the rear diff doesn't get particularly hot in street applications. But at the track, it will climb to high temps, which is not good for the fluid, and therefore the diff itself

Anyways, a few pics below. Also shown is the toggle switch for my accusump so I can pressurize oil at engine start and turn the system off before I shut down the car

Have you had a chance to see how much this setup lowers the temp?

Wiring finished up about 20 mins ago, do not yet. But I'm at a 2 day event Monday Tuesday this week where I'll test it out and report back!

Looks good. Interested to see in how much it lowers temps and prolongs fluid/seal life.
