If transmission cooling lines goes to radiator, may have to replace radiator? I can't think of another way antifreeze would get in your transmission? Just my opinion.

Yes, the transmission cooler inside the radiator has failed. Replace the radiator, and coolant, also flush the transmission and all lines multiple times. Then hope for the best that the trans doesn't need a rebuild. Water inside the transmission swells the clutch packs.
