Question:

Hi Guys I have a ford f-250 1999 7.3 liter diesel truck i have already installed one of your transmission coolers on my truck. I was wondering for max protection should I install one of your coolers with a fan on it or go for one of the larger AFE sump pans I have a 34 ft fifth wheel camper and a 32 ft goose neck dual wheel trailer that I pull with truck and 100 horse tractor that goes on goose sometimes to be hauled from site to site.

For the absolute best transmission cooling potential you would want to install a second supplemental cooler to go along with the one you have like the part # D15876. Since this has a fan you can remotely mount it anywhere you need to and it will provide it's own air flow.

You will also need the install kit part # D13023 so that it can be used as a transmission cooler. This comes with all of the correct fittings for installation.

The pan coolers work to a certain extent, but a remote cooler like this will be much more effective.

Be sure you aren't exceeding the towing capacity of your truck. When I first read your question I thought you said you were towing a trailer that carries 100 horses...
