• Recommended Parts for 2004 Ford E250 5.4 V8 Towing Trailer
  You have the basics covered with the brake controller and tow mirrors but I would also recommend a transmission cooler like part # D13503 with the adapter part # D13024 and # D13014. This is going to do a great job prolonging the life of your transmission as heat is the number one killer of them and towing creates quite a bit of heat. Then to install the Redarc Tow Pro Elite part # RED44FR you'd just need the install harness part # RED87FR and for tow mirrors the custom install set # CTM2500...

To make installation easier you would also want the # D13014 and # D13025 fittings.

  I'd recommend a larger transmission cooler for your 1988 Ford F-350 with a 460 cubic inch engine like the Derale part # D13504 which measures 11" Wide x 12" tall x 7/8" deep. This is a larger plate-fin style cooler which is going to be very efficient and provide the best cooling.

• Recommended Transmission Cooler and Weight Distribution for Towing Pop-Up With 2003 Ford Windstar
  Adding a transmission cooler is an excellent way to protect and prolong the life of your transmission for little cost. A transmission cooler is not a vehicle specific item.

• Installing Supplemental Transmission Cooler on 1999 Ford E150 Van
  The Derale # D13502 Transmission Cooler you referenced is a supplemental cooler that can certainly be used with a OEM transmission cooler.

In other words, the transmission fluid would leave the transmission, go through the factory cooler, then go through the supplemental cooler then return to the transmission.
