Coolers are also not vehicle-specific; you can use the largest cooler that will fit the space available for mounting one. Since you are planning to use a deep-pan tranny cooler I suggest you consider adding an engine...

  • Transmission Cooler and Temperature Gauge Recommendation for My 2015 Chevrolet Traverse
  • I have a transmission cooler solution for your 2015 Chevy Traverse that will help with your extra piece of mind. Our most popular cooler for your vehicle is Derale's # D13503, this is a plate and fin style cooler.

  • Derale Transmission Oil Pan # D14207 for a 2009 Chevrolet Express Van
  • According to Derale, the # D14207 will be compatible with the 4L80E transmission on your 2009 Chevrolet Express Van if you have 2-1/2 inches of clearance under your existing pan without hitting the cross member to accommodate the greater depth of the Derale pan. The Deep Pan Filter Adapter, # D14010, is only required with the Derale transmission pan cooler for Dodge applications and would not be needed with the # D14207 cooler for your van.

  • Adding an Engine Oil Cooler and a Power Steering Cooler to a 2007 Toyota 4Runner SR5 4.0L V6
  • Thanks for asking about a Power Steering Cooler and Engine Oil cooler for your 2007 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V6. Adding two more coolers is not going to present a cooling issue for your engine/radiator. The coolers allow air to flow through them and will not transfer enough heat to the air going through them to effect the cooling performance of the vehicle's radiator. Your engine oil filter has 3/4-16 threads. So you can determine the correct threads to use from the recommended kits below,...

  • Best Way To Add A Standalone Transmission Cooler To A Classic Car
  • The majority of our transmission coolers are supplemental, meaning they are designed to aid the radiator in cooling the vehicle's transmission fluid. However, I do have a few standalone options that should work just fine to cool your classic mustang's transmission. As a general rule of thumb, you will want to use the largest cooler in the provided space you have available. For a non-remote mounted transmission cooler, the best place to place the cooler is in front of your radiator behind...

  • Will an Oil Cooler Kit Fit a 2013 Toyota Highlander with the 3.5L V6 Engine
  • Your 2013 Toyota Highlander with the 3.5L v6 engine uses a cartridge style oil filter which means the Derale Plate-Fin Engine Oil Cooler Kit part # D15405 will not work for you. With that being said, it is unlikely that you would need an oil cooler if you are within the towing capacity. In most newer vehicles, installing an engine oil cooler can have a negative impact as they actually cause a decrease in oil pressure. The decreased oil pressure is not drastic but does have more of an affect...
