Recieved item on time, great quality.
Product was exactly as advertised. Product was shipped quickly, very happy with service.
Happy to find a system with the adapter. Mounted to my 4runner very easily. Not much confidence in the plastic mounting method will make something else.
To start I gave the product a good rating only because the kit put together by Derale came with the wrong barb fittings. I called Derale directly and they sent out the right fittings. I have not installed the kit yet but it is well made in the USA. If the kit would of came with the proper barb fitting definitely would of got a excellent rating.
This is a quality product and performs great. Installed on a 2012 Toyota Tacoma and had to have some machine work accomplished and a change from the original oil filter. Installation was straight forward after those issues were resolved.
Installed this on my 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee overland with the hemi as the oil temp was heating up while towing. The install was not fun as I had to remove the front fender, grill and under body shield. Had to relocate oil filter to driver side and as a result, ran out of hose and had go out to buy more. Wish there was a few more feet. I placed oil cooler in front of radiator.
Once installed, oil cooler has worked great as I regularly go off-roading and camping towing a 6k pound trailer. Oil temps stay 20-30 degrees cooler making a huge difference when towing. No issues with the oil cooler after a year of use. Has been a great product, I would recommend it.
It has been 1 year now. Here is the story.
Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 w/3.92 gears.
Oil temp at speed with no trailer: 224
Oil temp at speed with Springdale Mini RV: 240 (backed off at that point….it would have kept climbing)
After the install:
Oil temp at speed with no trailer: 200ish.
With trailer 210-220
Before I did this, I had to keep it at 55 in the expressway to keep my oil from turning into charcoal. Now I can drive normally. Only at the hottest part of the summer on a long grade did I ever brake 230 and it cooled right back off at the top of the hill.
Also holds about another quart of fluid which I like from a wear/tear perspective.
Even if the temp wasn’t an issue this kit would be worth it to move the oil filter to a non-retarded spot. I opted to go with the frame on the right side. Can change filter from side if wheel is turned. Very nice.
My vehicle is a 2010 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi 4x4. Overall product is great, those Conti hoses are awesome and little hard to get on lol but only issue I had I couldn’t retain my factory mopar oil filter which isn’t a big deal I got a WIX filter that fit. Thanks for quick shipping and great product! Will be buying a transmission cooler from you soon!
Installed this product on my 2013 Ram 5.7 Hemi. Install was simple and straight forward. I hoped there would be improvements in the operating temperature of my engine oil, which there was. Now towing my trailer is no worry about engine oil temp. This cooler works exactly as advertised, and the temp never go above 220. An unexpected result was better gas mileage by almost 2 additional miles per gallon. Also the truck runs much quieter than before and smoother. This noticed by my wife who rides with me always. So I would defiantly call this a win win install and purchase.
I purchased this kit 1 year ago for an 08 Toyota Highlander V6 Sport. The vehicle had a small (and I mean small) trans cooler already installed with the sport, but adding this additional cooler gives us the piece of mind an confidence that when either towing or evening just sitting in temps up to 116F at the drive through in SoCal during summer hours, my family will stay cool. The fans run less and the whole vehicle runs a bit cooler as well. I have verified this with 3rd party OBD readers, actively watching oil temps both at normal operating temps, hill climbs, towing, and when sitting in extreme heat. IT DOESNT BUDGE! I dont have enough good things to say about this cooler. If youve ever thought about it, you should do it. Very easy to install and it flat out works.
It doesn't fit my car even though the website said it would. I had already installed the radiator component before i found the filter adapter didn't fit so i couldn't return the product.

This is a universal kit, so there is no guarantee whether it will fit your application. In order for us to assist you, we need pictures and to know what made the adapter not fit.
Great product. Easy installation.
Easy to install but make sure you use quality thread tape. Check for leakage after 300 miles of driving. Then check again.
Bill is very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. Good fella, I can't comment on the product yet because I haven't installed it yet. Thanks Jesse
Doesn't take long to install.

The customer service is excellent thanks for the product. It is exactly as on the web site. Installing it on my truck. Honest, honorable people. I will continue to do business with. Thanks again
The kit is excellent, with a great price. I haven’t installed it yet. The kit doesn’t include the reducer for the smaller hose. Fast shipping and great support. Detailed Instructions would be extrodinarilly helpful.
Tranny side had no problems. Oil side kept leaking and was eventually disconnected. Hose clamps for hoses need to be replaced with sealed units.
Fast shipping
Very helpful,
Package was delivered on time. Installed it the next day. Didn't realise it's for oil and transmition. Just needed the oil cooler. Either way it's installed. Took a bit as I mounted in a different location than in front of radiator. Only did the oil. Already have a trany cooler. However I might loop into the other side for a trany and use the whole radiator. So far so good

1 year later and still going strong. It does make a difference but have t measured the temp. However, pulling a 32 foot travel trailer I do notice a difference when I turn the fan on
Without a video for my 2014 explorer and with limited written instructions I chose to find a repair shop that would do the installation. It cost me $360 to have the dual cooler installed. Most places won't consider third party parts to install and others that wanted to charge from $600 - $800 to install. Removing the front cowling, bumper, & headlights proved to be too big of a challenge without adequate instructions. Also following the installation I drove cross country pulling a trailer and I didn't trust my self with the work, and at near 70 years I no longer want to tackle such a job. Other than above I made it to California with out incident.
PS, it would have been helpful for an estimate of the additional engine oil and transmission fluid it would take to fill the new system.
This is a good product and installation was fairly straight forward. The directions do not address the transmission connection to the cooler. If it did, someone would have realized a part was missing from the kit. If you are installing this cooler on a Dodge you will need a different connector than the one provided. Dodge uses a snap in, rather than screw in, connector for the transmission line. I only discovered this by watching a video online which actually gives the Derale part number for the connector (I don't remember what it is). I explained this to the customer service agent and he did not believe me nor would he send me one for free. Since I ordered this kit specifically for a Ram I feel this adaptor should have been included in the kit. Disappointed about that, otherwise it seems like a good kit. I haven't tested it yet since I am waiting for the adaptor.
I installed the etrailer derale transmission cooler on my 2012 Toyota Tacoma. Hauled home a 3500lb tractor 3000 miles up hilly terrain and had no problems at all. Works great.
I have not had a chance to install this unit yet. From the looks of it though it is worth it. Install should be a breeze too. I purchased this for a 05 Dodge Caravan. It cam with all the different oil filter adapters color coded for the filter you use.

How was the install? Are you happy with it? Any things you wished you knew before you began the install?- thanks. - getting ready to do the same
I haven't had the transmission cooler installed yet but the service I received in ordering and the shipping was way above what I ever expected. Very friendly customer reps and they know their job.
Easily installed to an 05 town and country. I think the 3/8 compression/ barbed fittings should be included in the kit though. Also do yourself a favor and make sure you get the hoses on the cooler before you tie it in place cause they go on HARD. Otherwise pretty simple. Installing for towing purposes. Took about 1 hour complete.
This cooler does a good job keeping transmission oil engine oil cooler.
This kit was easy to install on my application and works very well.
Everything arrived intact, no damage. Instructions were clear. Products were put on with ease. Thanks
Received it packaging was great the cooler was in perfect condition all items seem accounted for. Cant wait to install it.

This upgrade to my Ram has paid for itself after one year of use by extending the oil life thus reducing oil change interval
