If you manage to uncouple the pipes from the cooler without goring the threads you will be the first person on the planet to do it. Seriously though it can be done, but i would try to undo them before you send for bits, odds on you will need a cooler.

Glad it went well. I just received my pipes in the post yesterday from 4x4landroverparts.co.uk They were £34.84 for one and £37.69 for the other.

Will go and spray penetrating fluid on there now then ready for the job tomorrow. Hopefully mine will come of as well as yours did !

Oh well, you win some, you lose some I guess. I lost. Both gearbox oil cooler threads stripped off whilst undoing the pipes.

Anyone know a cheap place to get a diesel auto wheel arch oil cooler ?

Are the non-genuine parts oil coolers any good, or is it worth the extra to go genuine ?
