Helpful Expert Reply:

The Derale 17" Frame Rail Fluid Cooler, # D13221, is a universal cooler so it will fit your 2004 Dodge Dakota but does not include the fittings and hose that you will need for installation.

Instead, I recommend taking a look at Derale Dyno-Cool Tube-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit, # D12901. Still very economical but offers a larger cooler and includes a high-temperature hose with clamps, nylon mounting rods, and Insta-dapt radiator adapter which fits most vehicles with 5/16" transmission lines. This cooler has a burst pressure of 300-psi and a guaranteed pressure rating of 250-psi.
