The fascia has to come off for the trans cooler to be mounted.
I researched it and decided to go the in car route. I don't have an engine stand or engine lift.
Plus the part that seems to take time and be kind of a pain in the car is changing out springs and I can do that out of the car since I have to take the heads off anyway.
If you ask me, it would be a wash with the time it would take to remove and reinstall extra components and all that stuff compared to just leaving it in, there's really not all that much to this job.
Dropping the trans isn't a big deal either.
