Michael Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a quick look at these Derale radiator adaptor fittings. These are going to make it much easier for you to install your new transmission cooler without having to go through the hassle of cutting and flaring your lines. These fittings are designed specifically to work with your 1996 with your 1996 and newer GM trucks with a 3/8 3/8 inch line. And this will connect your radiator to your transmission cooler without having to do any of those cutting and flaring steps.
These are 5/8 inch inverter, flare fittings. So they are going to just slide right in place and connect very easily for you, to save you a little bit of hassle and a few steps there. So if you are looking to add a new transmission cooler to your GM, this is going to be a great way to make that process a lot easier and quicker for you. So that's going to complete our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com.
Thanks for watching..
Recieved as described.
Very product thank you
Have not installed them yet but it looks like this will make the job easier
Great product! It makes the installation a breezy.
The adapter fitting did not fit my 2008 GMC Sierra 1500 w/ 5.3 liter engine and factory trailer package.
I purchased these fittings thinking these would fit my GM product. NOT.......These are 3/8 and looks like the fit the truck series only as stated on the package. Be aware
These fittings made connecting the hoses to the steel transmission lines very easy - glad I bought them! I recommend getting them.
It looks like from reading the matierl if one is using the cooler in series with the factory cooler this adapter is not needed.
Thus I would like to return, but I fear the shipping cost will not make sense, dollar wise...
Thus the recommendation should state if you are adding a cooler to your system where one does not already exist, then you'll need this adapter.
So if your adding to an already existing system, you do not need the adapter.
So far the trans cooler has been working well. I also used the adapters. Both products are doing well after 1500 miles or so and many hills, mountains, and trailering.
Great cooler upgrade for my 1997 GMC Yukon! Little delivery damage, but was so easy to bend those fins back to original shape so no worries!
Nice that you had proper dimension measurements online, so it was easy to figure out what kind I can fit in my truck. Complete kit had everything I needed to get it done!
Modified old cooler bracket little bit and that was it. Works great!
