Dimensions

Stacked-plate heat exchangers have long been considered the most effective type of oil or transmission coolers, primarily because of their increased surface area. Allowing fluid to spread out over this larger surface area decreases the time required for heat transfer to take place. As a result, plate coolers typically manage to cool a greater volume of fluid faster than tube-and-fin, or even plate-and-fin, varieties. Add to that a powerful tornado fan that ensures optimum airflow at all times, no matter the environment, and you have a super-efficient heat exchange unit.

Awesome product! Received it yesterday. Custom fabricated brackets for it to mount below my auxiliary trans cooler on my 07 fx4 f150. Installed the on off switch on out side of transmission and the fan works great!

Awesome remote transmission oil cooler. Attached at the rear under belly of a Toyota FJ Cruiser, 2007.

2010 Toyota Highlander

excellent quality product, I have intalled the fan/cooler on a toyota highlander 2010 without tow package not infront of the a/c radiator but exactly at the same place as toyota install the oem transmission cooler just behind the right fog light. I have a travel trailer of 3300 lbs dry, (4000lbs gross weight) and before my transmission temperature was around 215-220 F with a standard transmission cooler(without a fan) infront of the a/c radiator, but now with my new derale fan cooler, its around 180F after a long climb. I am totally satisfied. I had to build a bracket to fit the cooler in this tiny space behind the fog light, it took me 6-7 hours .



by:

Mounted between fuel tank and transfer case. Larger 6.0 cooler would go in front of intercooler. Dont need anymore heat there. This was cheaper and works great in this position. Wrapped exhaust near the lines as they have to dump out on right side of trans. and I did not want any hard 90 degree turns with all this extra plumbing. Keeps temps way lower. Also installed oversize/cooler pan.
FYI using temp sensors in pan and in valve body. Pan is regularly 30 degrees cooler than valve body.



by:

Easy install, and works as specified. Would put on future high performance vehicles



by:

Have not installed it yet, but looks impressive! This this is like a beast cooler. Will be installing it this week before a long distance rv trip.

Nice product



by:

Great product and prices really awesome service



by:

I was very impressed on quality and ruggedness. Its heavy and works great. This is a must in South Texas especially pulling a trail.



by:

Love my engine oil cooler. I was having overheating problems with my Dodge truck while towing on a hot day. I asked the guys at etrailer if I should add a bigger radiator, and engine oil cooler or another tranny cooler. They nailed it when they recommended a supplemental engine oil cooler. I now can town my fifth wheel RV trailer on the hottest days and in the mountains without overheating. I do still have to watch the temps and if they start to get over 260 f or so I downshift a gear or two to get greater fluid flows. The only reason I am not giving this 5 stars is that with the supplied hose clamps I was plagued with constant slow leaks. I finally bought a much higher end hose Clamp which did solve the problem.



by:

I was surprised at the lack of feedback on these products, and the differences in opinions. I tow a fare amount, between 7000lbs and 9500lbs. My vehicle is a 2013 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 8 speed transmission. ( outside temperature 20-30 deg Celsius ). Before I installed this engine cooler my temperature ran around 115 deg Celsius on a flat pull and 130 - 135 deg Celsius on most hills. After a hill it took a long time to drop in temperature, most time it hardly dropped. Now I rarely see 115 deg Celsius on a hill, and recovers to 100 deg Celsius very quickly. So in short I'm very happy with this product. I would recommend it to anyone that Tows.



by:

Excellent product, quality parts and fittings for multiple installation platforms. Took about 4 hours to install but was a custom install under bed of truck.



by:

Appears to be well-built and wasn't too hard to plumb in series with the existing oil cooler. Unfortunately with my 2010 Suburban it did not make any difference in the oil sump temperature shown by the computer - either daily driving or while towing. I plan on borrowing a laser thermometer to see what the actual input/output temps are.



by:

Great product. Keeps transmission oil cool. Happy with my purchase



by:

Arrived today. need to find time to install. Looks great. box was untaped but I think everything is here. It looks like a quality product. Excellent so far!



by:

Easy install very high quality product.

  • Transmission Cooler Recommendation for a 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
    You mentioned wanting the best cooler for your 2003 Chevy Silverado. The best, as in the most amount of cooling, is going to be a remote cooler with its own fan like # D13960. It does not matter where this cooler gets mounted because its fan offers the optimum amount of cooling all the time. Otherwise for a standard cooler that would require air flow I recommend # D13105. Its large surface area will provide plenty of cooling for your trucks transmission. To avoid cutting and flaring lines...

  • Recommended Fan-Powered Transmission Cooler for 2009 Toyota Sienna
    For a fan-powered remote transmission cooler for your 2009 Toyota Sienna I recommend the Derale Class V Hyper-Cool # D13960. This high-efficiency stacked-plate cooler kit includes the cooler, fittings, hose and all hardware required for installation. The fan's 500-CFM (cubic-feet-per-minute) airflow cools your transmission fluid no matter your driving speed, unlike passive coolers like the Derale # D13503 that rely on air flow from your driving speed to cool your transmission.

    It's definitely not abnormal for your transmission fluid to heat up while towing, especially when you're going up hills that force the truck to work a lot harder. To help with this adding a transmission cooler like you mentioned is a great idea. For your 2005 Chevy Silverado 2500HD I highly recommend the Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit w/ Fan # D13960.

  • Rerouting Transmission Fluid from the Factory Radiator 2007 Nissan Pathfinder
    I do have a solution that will allow you to cool your 2007 Nissan Pathfinder's transmission fluid without running the risk of coolant leaking inside the transmission but unfortunately, the radiator will need to be replaced no matter which route you go. This is a fairly common problem on certain vehicles and can cause further harm to both the vehicle and transmission if not corrected. The easiest way to prevent any further mishaps would entail bypassing the factory radiator for transmission...

  • Correct Replacement Thermostat for Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kits
    The correct replacement thermostat for the Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kits like part # D13960 or part # D15660 is the Replacement Thermostat for Derale Fan Controls part # D16728. The thermostat has spade connections on one end where the wires go so carefully pull the wires off this end by the connector and then thread the old thermostat out. The replacement can then simply be installed in reverse order.

  • Tip for Where to Mount Derale Remote Transmission Cooler 2004 Ford Explorer
    We don't have any pictures or videos we can show you to help put the Derale transmission cooler part # D13960 in your vehicle but the great thing about this kit is that since it comes with a fan you don't have to put it somewhere that gets access to air flow. If there's a tighter area that it could fit it would work fine there since it provides it's own air flow.

  • Derale Hyper-Cool Transmission Cooler D13960 Fittings For 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee With 4.0 Engine
    There are different that fittings you will need for your 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a 4.0L engine than the ones you mentioned in order to install the Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit # D13960. Your '02 Grand Cherokee should have a 3/8" rubber hose (though I do recommend verifying this), so what you will need instead is the Derale Radiator Adapter Fittings for Dodge and Jeep # D13028.

  • Selecting Installation Location for Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler D13960

Flexibility in mounting point is one of the advantages of a fan-powered cooler. Since they don't rely on passive air flow for cooling they'll work effectively almost anywhere you can fit one. Coolers like this Derale Hyper-Cool are intended to supplement the OEM...

  • Will Derale Remote Mount Transmission Cooler # D13960 Fit 2012 Chevy Suburban
    While we don't have specific fit info for the Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler # D13960 that you referenced the dimensions of this cooler would pretty easily fit the available space you have. This cooler measures 13" Wide x 10" tall x 5-5/8" deep but what's really great is that even if for some reason it didn't fit there since this has a fan on it you could really install it about anywhere and the fan would pull enough air to make it efficient still.

  • Mounting The Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit w/ Fan In 2013 GMC Sierra
    For your 2013 Sierra 1500, I recommend mounting the Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit w/ Fan, -6 AN Inlets - Class V, # D13960, using your second option. I'd leave the stock cooler alone and mount the Derale cooler with fan in front of the passenger wheel well. The stock cooler location will allow that cooler to function at its potential and then you can add the Derale cooler, which can function almost anywhere with its attached fan to further cool your transmission.

  • Replacing the OEM Transmission Cooler on a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    The transmission coolers that we have on our site are meant to be supplemental coolers, meaning they are meant to be installed on a vehicle that has a transmission cooler that is in good working order. That is why we only have videos of them being installed on the OEM part. We have had some reports of people using supplemental transmission coolers to replace their OEM cooler so if you do decide to replace your OEM cooler with a supplemental cooler then you will want to make sure that you...

  • Comparing a Remote Mount and Standard Transmission Cooler
    The Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit w/ Fan part # D13960 would absolutely provide greater cooler power than the Derale 25-Row High-Performance Stacked-Plate Cooler part # D52508. The reason for this is because the fan provides constant airflow which in turn translates to more cooling whereas with the standard cooler you would be subjected to the mobility of the vehicle for cooling power. If you find yourself in a lot of stop and go traffic then the cooler with a fan would...

  • Recommended Transmission Coolers for 2009 Nissan Armada SE 2WD Towing Travel Trailer
    We can help you with a supplementary transmission cooler for your 2009 Nissan Armada SE 2WD to reduce its operating temperature when you tow your new Forest River travel trailer. For a standard passive cooler that mounts in front of your AC condenser I suggest the Derale Class III model # D13503. This will provide significant additional cooling of your transmission fluid. For a higher-capacity passive option the Class IV model # D13613 is a good choice. If you happen to often tow in the...

  • Best Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2012 Chevy Suburban
    One really efficient and larger transmission cooler would be all that you'd need. In theory, the more the better but in reality one really good one would be all that you'd need. The Derale Hyper Cool part # D13960 is a stacked plate style of cooler with a built in fan which would be more than adequate. The stacked plate coolers are by far the most efficient and the fan ensures that you'd always have enough airflow to cool the fluid. It also allows you to mount basically anywhere as it...

  • Can Two 40 Row Derale Transmission Coolers be Used in Place of a Factory Cooler
    Yes! You can use 2 of the Derale 40-row coolers # D54008 to cool the transmission fluid on your prostreet car. The stacked plate design is the most efficient at cooling. To optimize cooling make sure the coolers are mounted where they can get the most air flow (right behind the grille). I also recommend a couple of mount kit # D50020 and some hose. For a 25 foot length with an inner diameter of 11/32" use # D13007. For 25 feet of a 3/8" diameter use # D13017. We also have a 4-pack of stainless...
