• What Is the Amp Draw of the Derale Atomic-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit D13950
  The Derale Atomic-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit part # D13950 will draw up to 4.8 amps. In regards to fluid capacity, this is not a figure that Derale provides. That said if the reason you are asking this is to determine how much fluid needs to be added to the system in order to account for the increased fluid capacity, I would say around 1/4-1/2 quart but this will vary mostly based on the length of line used so it is best to check and then add as needed.

• BTU Rating of Detale D13950 Atomic-Cool Remote Mount Transmission Cooler
  According to Derale, their # D13950 Atomic-Cool Remote Mount Transmission Cooler offers a 22,000 BTU/Hour Cooling Rating and would be a minimally adequate choice for a vehicle used on a drag strip, I'd recommend bumping up to a 46K unit such as the Derale Hyper-Cool # D15960. Drag racing is extremely hard on a transmission, it would make good sense to make the small investment to upgrade to the higher capacity cooler.

As long as you install this out in front of your current radiator/condenser setup this will work...

• How to Select Best Transmission Cooler for 2012 Chevy Silverado
  The best transmission cooler for your 2012 Chevy Silverado is going to be the largest one that fits. A unit with a fan will give your truck optimum cooling power, but you do need to measure to ensure that you have enough room for this type of cooler to fit because a unit with a fan will take up more room. For example, the Derale 16-Pass Electra-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler # D15900 measures 15-3/4" wide x 11-1/2 " tall x 5" deep so you would need to find that amount of space under...

• Will the Derale Atomic-Cool Transmission Cooler Fit on a 2009 Silverado 1500 Z71 4WD
  The ideal operating temperature for transmission fluid should remain between 160 and 200 degrees. If your transmission fluid was reaching 195 degrees when towing your fifth wheel trailer, it would be a good idea to either upgrade your factory added cooler or add an additional transmission cooler because this temperature could increase if you are towing on in hot weather or through hills where the engine and transmission will be working harder than on flat ground. Installing a remote mount...

  The Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit, item # D13503, will provide extra cooling to help keep your transmission at normal temperatures when towing. Whether or not any cooler will provide enough cooling depends on many factors specifically related to your vehicle and trailer setup.

• Does Derale Atomic-Cool Mount in Front of Radiator of 2012 Jeep Liberty
  The Derale Atomic-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit # D13950 is actually designed to mount away from the front of the vehicle it is being installed on, which in your case is a 2012 Jeep Liberty. Apart from that there are no specific spots this kit is meant to be mounted as it is a more universal application; it can be mounted anywhere else that you have space to fit its 12-3/4" wide x 9-3/8" tall x 4-5/16" deep dimensions. If you wanted a cooler that is designed to mount in front of...

• Will Derale Atomic Cool Remote Coolers # D13950 Block Air Flow to Radiator Significantly
  A transmission cooler mounted out in front of the radiator would impede the air flow in a small amount but what we've found is that at higher speeds like that there's enough air flowing through the coolers that the effect is very minimal and nearly all the time not noticeable.

  As far as functionality there isn't one place that is really better than another for the Derale Atomic-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit # D13950 on a 2017 Nissan Armada. Basically anywhere there is space for it will be a good location. On modern vehicles space in the engine compartment can be at a premium though so you will want to check ahead of time prior to installing a cooler. This cooler is 12-3/4" wide x 9-3/8" tall x 4-5/16" deep overall. The width and height probably won't be...

• Recommendation for a Supplemental Transmission Cooler for a 2007 Ford F-150 with 5.4 Liter Engine
  Based on the information you have provided, which I greatly appreciate, a standard supplemental cooler should be sufficient for your needs. Ideally you want the transmission temperature to be no more than 200 degrees F. Mounting a larger cooler directly behind the grille (in front of everything else) such as # D13504 should get you to the ideal range. You will also want fitting # D13025 so you will not have to cut and flare any lines. A remote cooler with its own fan will provide the optimum...

• Remote Transmission Cooler Recommendation for a Chevy Silverado 2500HD
  The transmission coolers that we carry are meant as supplemental coolers anyway so they will work great for what you want to do. The path of the fluid will start at the transmission, go to the factory cooler, then to the supplemental cooler, and then back to the transmission. For a remote cooler that includes the mounting hardware you can use # D13950. I have included a link to the installation details for you. I have also included a link to our FAQ article to the right on transmission...

  When you install the Derale Atomic-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit w/ Fan # D13950 that you referenced you can either replace your current cooler or you can install this one after the factory cooler so that you get the cooling power of both. The most common and recommended method would be to put this cooler down stream of your factory cooler so that is what I would recommend for you. All you would need is the cooler and the fitting part # D13035 and you would be good to go. The #...

• Can a Remote Transmission Cooler be Used in Place of a Factory Cooler on a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder
  Basically, an aftermarket transmission cooler is used as a supplemental system and not a primary unit. But, when a leak like what you are describing does happen, the options are to bypass the factory cooler and plug the radiator so it does not continue to leak, or replace the radiator. You could use the Derale Remote Cooler, # D13950, that you have selected. You would need to plug the transmission line inlet and outlet, so the OEM trans cooler could fill with fluid without leaking out....

• Reducing Transmission Heat When Towing with 2008 GMC Yukon Hybrid
  I checked the online owner's manual for the 2008 GMC Yukon hybrid and on page 4-22 it notes that the maximum loaded trailer weight this vehicle can tow is 6200-lbs (if 2WD) or 6000-lbs (if 4WD). If your unloaded trailer's dry weight is 6700-lbs then the vehicle may well be heating up from being overloaded. You might check your printed manual just in case it has different information about towing capacity. It is not possible to add towing capacity to a vehicle by installing aftermarket...

• Will a Remote Transmission Cooler Fit a 2005 Ford F-250 with 5.4 Liter
  The great thing about the Derale remote transmission cooler # D13950 is that you can mount it where ever you have space. Since it has its own fan it does not have to be placed out in front of the motor. This will allow you to position it in the place with the most room and that does include areas outside of the engine compartment! The only stipulation you will want to follow is not to place it too low or to where the fan or fins are facing the ground because something could bounce up from...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for Jeep Grand Cherokee that Does Low Speed Off-Roading
  I would highly recommend a transmission cooler for your 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee.

This comes with everything needed to install including lines and fittings but to make installing the cooler easier you would want the radiator adapter part # D13034 to prevent you from having to go through...

• How to Determine Which is the Return Line on the Factory Transmission Cooler of 2006 Chevy Equinox
  I can tell you an easy way to figure out which line is the return line and which is the feed line on the transmission cooler of your 2006 Chevy Equinox. When your car is cold go out and start it up and put it in drive for 10 seconds. Now put it back in park and shut it off. Go out and feel both coolant lines, the cooler of the two is the return line. The installers use this trick here all the time. I attached a couple FAQ articles on transmission coolers for you to check out also.

• Which Derale Remote Transmission Cooler for 2010 Chevy Silverado 4.8 Liter D13950 or D13960
  Both the Derale transmission coolers you mentioned would work great installed on your 2010 Chevy Silverado with a 4.8 liter V8. The part # D13960 is the more efficient style of cooler as it has a stacked plate whereas the # D13950 is a plate and fin cooler which is still really effective but not quite as effective as the stacked plate. Now both of these are easily more powerful than you'd need to get the job done so if you go with either you'll have very cool transmission fluid that will...

• Remote Mounted Transmission Cooler for 2002 Ford F250 with 7.3L Diesel
  If you do not have the necessary space directly behind the grille, a remote mount cooler with a fan would be your best bet for maximum cooling efficiency. A stacked plate cooler/ fan combo like part # D13950 offers a good balance between performance and relatively small size. You will want to mount the cooler in a protected location that has sufficient air flow to allow the fan to push air through the cooler. Ideally, you want to see your transmission cooler temperature below 200 degrees. For...

• Do Inlet And Outlet Ports Need To Be Mounted In A Particular Direction On Derale Cooler, # D13950
  The ports on the Derale Atomic-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit w/ Fan, # D13950, do not need to be mounted in any particular direction. The transmission cooler is not directional so having the inlet on the top or bottom does not matter. You will want to choose the inlet or outlet port location by what will make your installation easier. Since this cooler comes with a fan-mounted heat exchanger you can mount the exchanger wherever you want because the fan will provide optimum airflow.
