- Both the Derale # D15405 and # D15602 are great options for your 2015 Ram 1500. Since engine oil coolers are not vehicle specific, either cooler will work well for you.
The # D15602 is a stacked-plate design which generally cools faster and more efficiently, which is why it's able to be so much smaller. In terms of efficiency, the stacked-plate design is the best at cooling the engine oil. This oil cooler measures 13 inches wide by 4-9/16 inches tall by 2 inches deep. Since it's smaller...
view full answer... - Does Derale Oil Cooler Use a Thermostat
- The Derale Tube-Fin Oil Cooler # D15551 does not use a thermostat. The filter installs inline with the oil lines and a thermostat will block the flow of oil until the specific temperature is reached. Depriving your engine of oil is certainly not something you want to do.
The Derale cooler is a great choice for your 2014 Ram 1500. It will cool the engine oil, prolonging the life of your engine, without over cooling in low temperatures.

- The difference between the Derale Stacked-Plate Engine Oil Cooler Kit part # D15602 and part # D15605 is that the former comes with a 2-3/4" o-ring and the latter comes with both a 2-3/4" o-ring and a 3-1/2" o-ring. These o-rings are used to attach the sandwich adapter to the engine block (see photo). The 3-1/2" o-ring is only needed for 1963-2007 GM small block & big block V8 engines.

- In the two Derale combination oil/transmission fluid cooler kits # D15902 and # D15903 the actual cooler core part is the same, measuring 17" wide x 12-1/2" tall x 3/4" deep, but the difference between the kits is that part # D15903 is a GM-specific kit while the other is a universal kit with more parts to allow it to work in more applications. These extra component parts are the reason for the higher cost. For your Yukon you will use # D15903 along with Snap-In Radiator Adapter # D13035.

- For the functionality, the Derale Electra-Cool Combo Cooler, part # D15200, is the best cooler for your engine and transmission.
The 8-pass tubes and 650-CFM tornado fan work in conjunction to keep both cool and extends their life, prolonging the period between fluid changes. We don't have anything here that can rival it.

- The Derale Series 7000 Transmission Cooler Kits like part # D13105 has a tube-fin design whereas the Derale Series 8000 Transmission Cooler Kits like part # D13503 has a plate-fin design. The plate-fin design is superior to the tube-fin design in that it has internal turbulators to help the oil cool faster and prevent pressure loss.
For your 2000 Ford F-250 with the 7.3L V8 Diesel Engine, I recommend using the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit part # D13504 which is...
view full answer... - Differences Between Transmission Coolers, Oil Relocating Filters, and Transmission Filters
- The filter that comes with Derale Remote Transmission Filter Kit, # D13090, is an oil filter so in terms of how it filters, it functions the same way as the oil filter for the engine oil on your 2006 Dodge Caravan.
The Derale Remote Transmission Filter Kit, # D13090, can use off the shelf filters. The included filter does not use magnets. The outside diameter of the filter is 3-1/2 inches. It has 3/4 inch-16 threads.
The filter landing is 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 inches.

- The correct Sandwich Adapter for your 2006 Chevy Duramax is the Derale Thermostatic Sandwich Adapter - 13/16-16 Engine Filter Threads, item # D25720. There is not a Low profile adapter available at this time for the 3-1/2 inch O-ring filter size.
You will need to measure the area you have below your existing filter for installation and removal of the oil filter after installing the adapter. The # D25720 adapter is 2-1/4 inches thick so you will need at least 2-1/4 inches plus the thread...

- There are a couple of differences between the 8000 series Derale transmission coolers like # D13504, and the 9000 series like # D13613.
First, the 8000 Series features furnace-brazed aluminum construction, integrated high flow 3/4 inch turbulators for cooling efficiency, and 11/32 inch hose barb inlets.
The 9000 series also features a furnace-brazed aluminum construction, but it has integrated high flow 1-1/4 inch turbulators for even more efficiency. It also uses 1/2 inch NPT female...

- I did a little research and it looks like the stock fan in a 2011 Ford Escape is 500 to 650 cubic feet per minute. Flex-a-lite fan # FLX412 puts out 2,500 cubic feet per minute but draws much more power, 22 amps.
The electric fans we sell are universal items so you have to go by the dimensions of the item and compare that to the available space in the vehicle's engine compartment. Keep in mind this is a puller fan meaning that it goes between the radiator and motor and pulls air through...
view full answer... - Comparison of Plate and Fin Style Transmission Coolers and Tube and Fin Style Transmission Coolers
- The difference between the plate and fin style, # D13504, and the tube and fin style cooler, # D12904, is that the plate and fin models can cool better than the tube and fin models. You will notice that plate and fin coolers with the same rating as tube and fin coolers are smaller in size. Basically, the plate and fin cooler provides more surface area to extract heat from the transmission oil and also has internal turbulator technology to help the oil to cool faster and prevent pressure...
view full answer... - Recommendation For Transmission Cooler on a 2007 Jeep Liberty 3.7L Engine
- On a transmission cooler there are three basic types of heat exchangers. The most efficient is the stacked plate. The next one is the plate and fin, which is very efficient. Then, the tube and fin which is moderately efficient.
It will also matter where the heat exchanger is installed. The best spot for the greatest efficiency is between your vehicles grille and the AC condenser core on your 2007 Jeep Liberty. The next best spot is between the AC condenser and the radiator. This spot will...

view full answer... - Is Derale Dual-Pass Heat Sink Cooler # D13267 as Effective at Cooling as Traditional Tube/Fin Style
- It would depend on how much of a temperature drop you are seeking. It would not drop as much as a traditional tube and fin radiator. It would be something I would choose if I did not need the maximum amount of cooling in the smallest package available.
We do carry frame rail coolers in a similar size and shape that are traditional tube and fin style that will cool more than the heat sink style. Part # D13225 is a 24-3/4 inch long fluid cooler that will provide more cooling than the heat...
view full answer... - Recommendation for a Transmission Cooler with Max Cooling Capacity for a 2007 Chevy Avalanche
- The Tube and Fin Class IV Transmission Cooler, item # D13105, is designed for towing with a gooseneck or fifth wheel trailer, up to 12,000 lbs. This transmission cooler will supply excellent cooling for your Avalanche and will not affect the performance of your vehicle when not towing. You cannot cool the transmission too much. The only consideration is that when it is very cold in the winter you should allow the transmission to come up to temperature before taking off or putting a load...
view full answer... - Comparing Bias-Ply And Radial-Ply Tires For A Boat Trailer
- Bias-ply tires are engineered with a crisscross pattern of overlapping body plies, typically at 30 to 45-degree opposing angles. This makes for a more stable sidewall for the tire, but is more of a precursor design to radial tires. Radial tires have steel belts oriented in a 90-degree angle, give a much smoother ride, lower fuel consumption, better traction and flotation, improved cut resistance in the tread area, and run much cooler than bias. Overall, radial tires are the better option...
view full answer... - Is a Gooseneck or Fifth Wheel Towing Setup Smoother Riding
- I don't agree with a fifth wheel setup being smoother riding than a gooseneck unless you start using cushioned pin boxes/hitches. Fifth wheel setups have a lot more areas for movement so they can "chuck" much easier.
There are advantages to both setups but the biggest difference between the two is that for short bed trucks there are slider hitches that can be used with fifth wheel setups to give clearance but for goosenecks there isn't that option. However, since goosenecks trailers don't...

- You will often pay inflated prices at car dealers. There is really no difference between the trailer hitch and wiring harness that Toyota offers for your 2009 Toyota Venza than the Curt Trailer Hitch, # 13356, and the Curt Trailer Wiring Harness, # C56079.
All trailer hitches must pass specific tests whether they are OEM or aftermarket. In fact, Curt is in the OEM market as well as the aftermarket. Curt manufactures trailer hitches for a few different vehicle manufacturers. All of their...
view full answer... - Bumper Mount and Frame Mount Trailer Hitches for a 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan
- On most vehicles, the bumper beam is attached to the vehicle frame. A hitch that attaches to the bumper beam (a lot of Jeep and Dodge truck applications are like this) is just as safe and secure as a frame mount hitch. It would take an impressive amount of force and one heck of a crack in the road to pull the bumper off of a vehicle, provided the hitch is installed correctly.
Your mechanic may be thinking of a hitch that attaches to a square bumper like # E-100. You would not use this...
