Recommended Transmission and Oil Cooler Combo For a 2013 Ram 1500
Question:
I have a 2013 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi. I am looking for a combo cooler. Will the Derale 15902 combo work, or do I need to go bigger?

Expert Reply:
The Derale Combination Transmission and Engine Oil Cooler with Multiple Threads, # D15902, will work well for your 2013 Ram 1500. If you live in a colder climate, you may want to use the Derale Fluid Control Thermostat Kit w/ 3/8" NPT Ports, # D13011, which will allow 90% of the oil to heat faster and warm your motor and cab faster until you hit the 180 degree threshold where it sends everything to the cooler.
Another option for you would be the Derale Electra-Cool Combo Engine and Transmission Cooler Assembly w/ Fan, -8 AN Inlets - 8 Pass, # D15200. This system has a fan attached and the engine and transmission coolers have separate 8 pass tubes inside the same core for effective, simultaneous cooling. With this system, you will also want the Derale Remote Engine Oil Cooler Installation Kit w/Thermostat Fan Control, # D15752. This would be the best combination for your vehicle, but I can recommend either option.
I've attached a couple articles and a video to help.
