Tranny cooler

So when I bought me GCL Altitude back in July it did not come with a tow package. I later purchased the rear receiver bumper (hitch bumper) and the stock wiring. With this set up the v-6 towing capacity is 3500 lbs with standard tranny cooling. With the HD cooling for the tranny (a tranny cooler and associated tubing to include heater) it can tow up to 6200 lbs. so for $260 and taping plugins a few lines in the tranny I can gain quiet a bit of towing capacity. My question for you guys with the towing package is.... does the tranny cooler it self have a mount ? I can't see anything on the website but everything else needed is listed and in the parts breakdown. Pics of the actual cooler itself would be appreciated. If you work at a dealer can you let me know if any programming is required? Thanks in advance, here is the link to the tranny cooler items....

FYI , three other things that you would be missing without the factory tow group would be the auto headlamp leveling system , the rear load leveling suspension and full size spare.

I know but they are not required for the towing capacity they are just a luxury plenty of vehicles out there that don’t have auto leveling headlights lol. And good luck getting auto leveling suspension if they did away with the adjustable suspension.

I was wondering this same thing, I do have the tow ready package or whatever they call it but don’t know how to check if they did install the auto leveling suspension. On the app it has it listed so I guess I had better have it or else they are lying. It don’t really know how to test it.
