• Best Upgrades for Towing With a 2009 Ford E-350 12 Passenger Model
  The majority of problems that you will have when towing a trailer with your 2009 Ford E-350 will be related to vehicle sag; reduced braking power, decreased stability, improper headlight aim etc. These issues can then be amplified based on how heavy the trailer is or how worn the vehicle's suspension is. In order to combat these, a set of suspension enhancements will be needed. I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-107-47 for infrequent or part # SSR-107-54 for...

• Recommended Transmission Cooler For 1995 Ford F250 With 7.3L Diesel Powerstroke Engine
  The Derale Transmission Cooler, part # D13614 is designed to work with your 1995 F-250 with the 7,3L diesel. Since you said you have a small cooler already I recommend running the fluid through the cooler you have and then through the # D13614, and then through the radiator. This would be the optimal way to cool your fluid. To make it much easier to install the hoses it is recommended to use part # D13024 if you have 1/2-inch-20 threads. If you have 1/4 or 3/8 inch NPT-trans-line fittings...

• Do Transmission Coolers Install the Same Way on Every Vehicle
  Transmission cooler installations are not vehicle specific because transmission coolers themselves are not vehicle specific so they general way they install will be the same. What is different is where you may need to mount the cooler, whether or not you will have to cut and flare lines, and what you might need to move out of the way to install the cooler in the most efficient place. All of these things are different from vehicle to vehicle. The path of the transmission fluid should be...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 1999 Ford F-150 with 5.4 liter V8
  For towing a trailer like what you mentioned with a 1999 Ford F-150 a supplemental transmission cooler would be a great option that we would highly recommend. Most likely your truck came with a factory cooler but typically they do not do a very good job at all. Especially around the age of your truck. The newer vehicles have better coolers but the older ones are adequate at best for light duty applications. I'd recommend the part # D13503 as this is a very popular and efficient cooler...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2007 Ford F150
  The answer to your question is going to depend on how much free real estate you have on the front of the radiator right behind the truck's grille, which is the place where you'll want to install it. Unless you live where it gets and stays below 0°F for most of the winter, you really can't overcool a transmission, so you could go as big as the available space allows (more on that later). If you have 11 x 12 inches of space available, I'd recommend the # D13504 . You'll also need some transmission...

• Appropriate Replacement Transmission Cooler for 1987 Ford F-250 4X4 With C-6 Transmission
  Transmission and oil coolers are not vehicle-specific so you can use the largest one that will fit in the available space you have to mount it. You can start by measuring the available mounting space within the engine compartment and then select the largest cooler that will fit. An aftermarket cooler is a great way to provide supplementary cooling in addition to that provided by the OEM cooler in the radiator. The Derale # D13504 you referenced is a high-efficiency Class IV plate-fin type...

• How to Install the Derale Plate-Fin Engine Oil Cooler Inline with another Oil Cooler
  That depends on the size of the hose that is used to install your current oil cooler. If the line is the same as what comes with the # D15405 that you purchased all you would need is 2 sets of the # D13024 so that you could install the cooler inline with your current cooler. You would need to thread each set of the fittings together and tighten them down so that you would have two male end fittings. From there you would need to cut your current oil cooler hose and install the # D13024...

• What Transmission Cooler Should I use on my 2017 Ford Expedition
  You can choose many of the different coolers for your 2017 Ford Expedition. The 8an and 6an fittings are for other models instead I recommend using the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit w/Barb Inlets - Class IV part # D13504 and the Derale Radiator Adapter Fittings for Ford and Lincoln part # D13024. This will give you the components you need for a direct in line connection.

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for a 2009 Ford F-150 STX 4.6L
  We have a few excellent transmission coolers that would be great additions to your 2009 Ford F-150 STX, but they will each be a little larger than your factory cooler and rightfully so since you will be towing a 7,000 lbs trailer. My best recommendation is the Derale Stacked-Plate Transmission Cooler Kit, # D13402. The stacked-plate coolers are the most efficient tranny coolers on out there, so you can rest assured that it will be doing the most to keep your transmission fluid cool when...

• Radiator Adapter Fittings for Installing a Transmission Cooler on a 1996 Ford F-250/350
  For your 1996 Ford truck there are threaded fittings in the radiator which are input and out put from/to the transmission cooler. The fittings allow you to replace the existing fittings with ones that have flared ends for the hose in a supplemental cooler so you do not have to cut and flare lines. Use kit # D13014 if the radiator uses 1/4 inch or 3/8 inch threaded fittings, or use kit # D13024 for 1/2-20 inverted flare fittings. You do not need both kits unless you are not sure of what...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendations for 2010 Ford F150 4.6L
  I'd agree with the fact that you want the best cooling performance. Traveling through the mountains, especially when towing can be hard on your transmission. This is why we routinely recommend getting the largest cooler that will fit in the space available. The most efficient place to install a transmission cooler is between the grille and the radiator or A/C condenser. The Derale # D13504 measures 11 inches wide by 12 inches tall by 7/8 inches thick, so if you have that amount of space...

• How to Determine Fit of Oil Cooler for 1998 Ford F-150
  When it comes to transmission coolers they are not a vehicle-specific fit so any cooler, including the Derale 25-Row, High-Performance, Stacked-Plate Cooler # D52506, will fit depending on how much space you have in your 1998 Ford F-150; this one is 13" Wide x 9-3/16" tall x 2" deep. If you take a look at the linked help article on transmission coolers you can see exactly how they fit. A stacked-plate cooler is a great, heavy-duty option but if the 2" depth is too much another option is...

• Transmission Cooler For 2007 Ford F150
  You can indeed install a cooler like the # D52506 in place of the existing factory cooler, but you might consider installing it inline between the radiator and transmission as outlined in the help article I've provided. This will provide additional cooling which will work great because unless you live in a very cold climate, you really can't over cool a transmission. You'll need one of two fittings. Use kit # D13024 for vehicles with 1/2"-20 thread on trans line fitting, or use kit # D13025...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 1988 Ford F-350 with 460 Cubic Inch Engine
  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. To make the install easier you'll need the fittings # D13014 and # D13024 which make attaching the hoses to the radiator fittings much easier since they thread right on.

  The best location for the Derale Series 8000 Transmission Cooler Kit, # D13504, on your Ford F350 7.3L Diesel would be between your vehicle grille and the air conditioning condenser. This location will give you the most airflow and allow the maximum cooling ability of the heat exchanger. You will want to measure to make sure you have clearance to install the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger measures 11 inches wide x 12 inches tall x 7/8 inch deep. The Derale Series 8000 Transmission...

  The transmission cooler fittings you have referenced, # D13018, are not the correct part for your 2002 Ford F150 with 4.2L V6. For the 2002 Ford F150 with 4.2 L V6, it depends on what size transmission line fittings you have. If you have 5/8 inches-18 transmission line fittings you would use the Transmission Cooler Fitting, # D13025. If you have the 1/2 inches-20 transmission line fittings you would use Transmission Cooler Fitting, # D13024.
