I apologize for bumping an old thread..

I have 3.0 motor and I am in the middle of the cooling system refresh. I pulled the expansion tank out and to my surprise, there is no thermostat for the Automatic transmission in there? Does these come with one? Thanks,

Right, I get that they are 2 separate parts, but my car didn't have a thermostat when I pulled the expansion tank. Hence the question.

Got it. Like someone else said someone removed it and didn't replace.
