• Recommended Parts for 2004 Ford E250 5.4 V8 Towing Trailer
  You have the basics covered with the brake controller and tow mirrors but I would also recommend a transmission cooler like part # D13503 with the adapter part # D13024 and # D13014. This is going to do a great job prolonging the life of your transmission as heat is the number one killer of them and towing creates quite a bit of heat. Then to install the Redarc Tow Pro Elite part # RED44FR you'd just need the install harness part # RED87FR and for tow mirrors the custom install set # CTM2500...

• Best Upgrades for Towing With a 2009 Ford E-350 12 Passenger Model
  The majority of problems that you will have when towing a trailer with your 2009 Ford E-350 will be related to vehicle sag; reduced braking power, decreased stability, improper headlight aim etc. These issues can then be amplified based on how heavy the trailer is or how worn the vehicle's suspension is. In order to combat these, a set of suspension enhancements will be needed. I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-107-47 for infrequent or part # SSR-107-54 for...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2007 Ford F150
  The answer to your question is going to depend on how much free real estate you have on the front of the radiator right behind the truck's grille, which is the place where you'll want to install it. Unless you live where it gets and stays below 0°F for most of the winter, you really can't overcool a transmission, so you could go as big as the available space allows (more on that later). If you have 11 x 12 inches of space available, I'd recommend the # D13504 . You'll also need some transmission...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 1999 Ford F-150 with 5.4 liter V8
  For towing a trailer like what you mentioned with a 1999 Ford F-150 a supplemental transmission cooler would be a great option that we would highly recommend. Most likely your truck came with a factory cooler but typically they do not do a very good job at all. Especially around the age of your truck. The newer vehicles have better coolers but the older ones are adequate at best for light duty applications. I'd recommend the part # D13503 as this is a very popular and efficient cooler...

• Transmission Cooler For Ford F-150 With 1/2 Inch Fittings
  Hey Pat, So because you have 1/2" fittings on your F-150, all you'd need are adapters and you're set. So for the transmission cooler go with one that is large to get you the most cooling, which is the 11" wide x 7-1/4" tall x 7/8" deep Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit # D13502. Then what you will need to add are the adapters I mentioned, the 1/2" Inverted flare Derale Radiator Adapter Fittings for Ford and Lincoln # D13024.

• Does Supplemental Transmission Cooler Replace Factory Cooler of 1996 Ford F-150
  Ideally you actually install supplemental transmission coolers like the Derale part # D13504 after the factory cooler so that you get the cooling power of both coolers. This means you would not have to plug the ports on your radiator. You will also want the install fittings part # D13014 and # D13024 to make connecting your radiator as easy as possible and you'd be set.

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for a 2009 Ford F-150 STX 4.6L
  We have a few excellent transmission coolers that would be great additions to your 2009 Ford F-150 STX, but they will each be a little larger than your factory cooler and rightfully so since you will be towing a 7,000 lbs trailer. My best recommendation is the Derale Stacked-Plate Transmission Cooler Kit, # D13402. The stacked-plate coolers are the most efficient tranny coolers on out there, so you can rest assured that it will be doing the most to keep your transmission fluid cool when...

• Transmission Cooler For 2007 Ford F150
  You can indeed install a cooler like the # D52506 in place of the existing factory cooler, but you might consider installing it inline between the radiator and transmission as outlined in the help article I've provided. This will provide additional cooling which will work great because unless you live in a very cold climate, you really can't over cool a transmission. You'll need one of two fittings. Use kit # D13024 for vehicles with 1/2"-20 thread on trans line fitting, or use kit # D13025...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 1988 Ford F-350 with 460 Cubic Inch Engine
  I'd recommend a larger transmission cooler for your 1988 Ford F-350 with a 460 cubic inch engine like the Derale part # D13504 which measures 11" Wide x 12" tall x 7/8" deep. This is a larger plate-fin style cooler which is going to be very efficient and provide the best cooling. To make the install easier you'll need the fittings # D13014 and # D13024 which make attaching the hoses to the radiator fittings much easier since they thread right on.

• How to Determine Fit of Oil Cooler for 1998 Ford F-150
  When it comes to transmission coolers they are not a vehicle-specific fit so any cooler, including the Derale 25-Row, High-Performance, Stacked-Plate Cooler # D52506, will fit depending on how much space you have in your 1998 Ford F-150; this one is 13" Wide x 9-3/16" tall x 2" deep. If you take a look at the linked help article on transmission coolers you can see exactly how they fit. A stacked-plate cooler is a great, heavy-duty option but if the 2" depth is too much another option is...

• Radiator Adapter Fittings for Installing a Transmission Cooler on a 1996 Ford F-250/350
  For your 1996 Ford truck there are threaded fittings in the radiator which are input and out put from/to the transmission cooler. The fittings allow you to replace the existing fittings with ones that have flared ends for the hose in a supplemental cooler so you do not have to cut and flare lines. Use kit # D13014 if the radiator uses 1/4 inch or 3/8 inch threaded fittings, or use kit # D13024 for 1/2-20 inverted flare fittings. You do not need both kits unless you are not sure of what...

• Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2004 Ford F-150 Towing in Mountains
  Do you mean 4 wheel low 1 or low 2 gearing for your truck? You should keep the truck in 2 wheel drive when towing if you are on dry pavement. Putting the vehicle into 4 wheel drive will cause damage if you are on dry pavement. It would be a really smart idea to install a transmission cooler on your truck if you haven't installed one already. For that I recommend the Derale part # D13503 which is larger and very efficient. You'll also want the fittings part # D13024 and # D13025 to make...

You will need the Adapter Fittings # D13024 and # D13025 to tie into your transmission fluid cooling lines.

• Stacked Plate Transmission Cooler Recommendation for F150 Ford 2010
  The best transmission cooler will be the largest cooler you can fit in front of your radiator. Transmission coolers work best when mounted at the very front of compartment, (in front of the radiator)BEHIND THE GRILLE. You will want to measure this space to know how much room to have to install a cooler. The Derale 19-Row Stacked Plate Transmission Cooler Kit # D13403 you referenced measures 13 inches wide x 7-5/16 inches tall x 2 inches deep. As long as this cooler fits behind the grille...

• Do Transmission Coolers Install the Same Way on Every Vehicle
  Transmission cooler installations are not vehicle specific because transmission coolers themselves are not vehicle specific so they general way they install will be the same. What is different is where you may need to mount the cooler, whether or not you will have to cut and flare lines, and what you might need to move out of the way to install the cooler in the most efficient place. All of these things are different from vehicle to vehicle. The path of the transmission fluid should be...

Measure to be sure before purchasing, but most likely you will have plenty of room. The best tip I can give is to do some research on your vehicle.

• Transmission Cooler Recommendations for 2010 Ford F150 4.6L
  I'd agree with the fact that you want the best cooling performance. Traveling through the mountains, especially when towing can be hard on your transmission.

The most efficient place to install a transmission cooler is between the grille and the radiator or A/C condenser. The Derale # D13504 measures 11 inches wide by 12 inches tall by 7/8 inches thick, so if you have that amount of space...
