The thermostat housing on a DJ has an extra spigot, it runs a pipe over the top of the block, from there to the oil filter sandwich plate sitting under the spin on filter, from there it routes very tightly to the water pump which has and extra spigot, the pump literally sucks coolant through the plate.CJH wrote:kevtherev wrote: The only thing you have to do is change the water pump and thermostat housing to fit the oil cooler hose.

Excuse me quoting you from a different thread, but I thought this question would just clutter up Simon's thread. Do you know if there is a diagram of the way the oil cooler is plumbed into the newer cooling system? Since I'm planning to retain my older cooling system I doubt there'll be a 'standard' solution, but if I know which part of the circuit it connects up to in the new system I can try and do something similar.
I bought used pipe work to connect the various components, though I believe you can buy it new now.
The thermostat housing was from BY as was the pump
