Recommended Transmission Cooler For GMC Yukon XL Denali
Updated 07/16/2024 | Published 05/03/2017 >
Question:
I tow with this vehicle and am not happy with the trans temps I see though we are within towing limits. This vehicle HAS a factory transmission cooler. I talked to a guy who replaced his factory unit with a bigger one. My question is - does it make sense to replace factory unit with this one? Also, could this one be added on to whats there, and have two coolers?Yukon XL Denali w 6.2

On your GMC Yukon Denali XL, you can add a transmission cooler to your existing factory transmission cooler. I recommend Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit w/Barb Inlets - Class IV # D13504 which you were looking at due to its design.
This cooler will work well in-line of your current factory transmission cooler system which I recommend keeping.

Jason, I ordered the Derale 8000 D13504 cooler you recommended for my 2012 GMC Yukon Denali. What all do I need to order to adapt it to my current factor cooler? Also are there any videos or instructions on exactly how to to this?
