Default Where to install remote trans filter?

Can anyone suggest a good location for placing an external transmission filter.

unit is about H:7in x W:4in x L:4in, and needs to be accesible to remove the filter.

bolts with 3 screws.

i would mount it inline with the tranny cooler lines, maybe a custom mount underneath next to tranny possibly?

Yah, I'm trying to figure out where there is apropriate space.

Im really at a loss on this one, I have gone over the whole front end, and Im at a loss for a space to put it.

maybe I can fit it next to the headlight behind the grill? idk anybody know if this thing needs to be perpendicular or if it can lay sideways.

it is essentially the same thing as a remote engine oil filter. incase anyone was wondering what exactly i am asking about.

Ofcourse it's not necessary, I bought it because; A) I want to add volume to my transmission fluid system. B) because I am a paranoid person by nature and my blazer is about to go onto its 4th transmission. C) because i can!

Aside from that I just need to find a place to mount the darn thang?

It's a man's responsibility to maximize accessories. Just like women with purses, or shoes, or makeup, or hair thingies, or brushes or WHATEVER!

oh boy.... do you have a aftermarket tranny cooler? looking at the b&m tranny filter looks like you could mount them real close to each other

Where? lol

I have an external cooler aswell, but there just isnt enough room ANYWHERE lol

two spots im looking at now are either behind the grill, or trying to bracket it up, down by the remote oil filter.
