    This might sound dumb and sorry but some things im just not good at getting technical about, but I have an 04 century class company truck know. Ok there's this radiator looking thing under the bunk area on the outside see im looking at what that part is. Is it bunk heater or oil cooler? Anyhow I ask cause it smokes and bad, so im looking for info so i can point it out to part switcher guy at the yard you know. Thanks for any info thart is posted.

    It could be the transmission oil cooler. I have seen them mounted in some stupid places.

    If its abour 3-4 inches wide, bolted on rhs of frame rail right behind the crossmember and has 2 hoses coming in and aluminum then it is the trans cooler. I priced one out not to long ago and they are 300+ bucks so i went with an eaton one and made new brackets so it would get better air flow
