The Derale transmission cooler part # D13403 that you referenced is a stacked plate cooler (the most efficient style) that would do a great job keeping the transmission fluid of your 2004 Chevy Silverado cooler. You'd want to route the fluid from the factory cooler, to the Derale cooler, and then back to the truck's transmission to get the optimum cooling power. view full answer...
It is possible to bypass the original cooler and install a cooler like the # D33504 Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler. It is typically recommended to install this with your factory cooler to assist in the cooling process. I would not recommend this if you plan on doing some heavy towing.
Since this would be the only transmission cooler, you will want to use a larger model like a class IV or V. The # D33504 Derale I already mentioned is a Class IV plate-fin cooler that is... view full answer...
The transmission coolers that we have on our site are meant to be supplemental coolers, meaning they are meant to be installed on a vehicle that has a transmission cooler that is in good working order. That is why we only have videos of them being installed on the OEM part.
We have had some reports of people using supplemental transmission coolers to replace their OEM cooler so if you do decide to replace your OEM cooler with a supplemental cooler then you will want to make sure that you... view full answer...
The aftermarket oil and transmission coolers we offer are intended to supplement OEM coolers that are built into vehicle radiators. These supplementary coolers are typically employed for towing applications. Products like the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Cooler that you referenced, part # D13503, and others that we offer are not intended as replacements for original equipment components.
A police-spec vehicle usually has heavy-duty components in the braking, transmission, electrical and... view full answer...
An aftermarket transmission cooler is not required for you to tow a trailer with your Honda Pilot. However, it may be a good idea and it will certainly help to extend the life of your transmission, especially if you plan on towing often with your Pilot. The majority of transmission failures are a direct result of overheating and most factory cooling systems are at best adequate, and not necessarily designed to keep fluid at the appropriate temperature during towing conditions.
While there... view full answer...
The Derale # D12906 is a universal-fit aftermarket part that will fit your 2007 Grand Cherokee if the space behind the grille and in front of the A/C condenser and radiator can accommodate its 13 by 7-3/4 inch dimensions. If the available space is to small to allow installation of the D12906, we have smaller plate-fin style coolers like part # D13502 that are actually more efficient at cooling your transmission fluid. This cooler would typically be installed so it would be last in line... view full answer...
You can bypass your factory cooler if you wanted to, but typically people use our coolers like the popular # D13503 as a supplemental cooler installed downstream of the factory cooler.
To bypass yours though would only require you to run the lines of your factory cooler to the # D13503 instead. view full answer...
Transmission coolers are designed to prolong the life of transmissions in vehicles that tow as well as other vehicles that do not tow.
I would recommend you replace yours with a supplemental one like the part # D13503 that you referenced. Bypassing the cooler of your vehicle would most likely cause the transmission to prematurely fail since heat is the number one killer of transmissions. This cooler will be larger than the one you currently have so it would be more efficient. view full answer...
The Derale Radiator Adapter Fittings for Dodge and Jeep # D13028 is the correct adapter to use on the radiator of your 2005 Jeep Wrangler when installing a transmission cooler. This is the adapter you'd use to connect from the return line of the factory transmission cooler to the aftermarket cooler you have now. view full answer...
For a remote transmission cooler you will need an in line thermostat such as # D13021 or just the thermostat by itself as # D16728. view full answer...
You can certainly replace your existing Derale transmission cooler with the Derale Atomic-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler, # D15950. This cooler comes with all of the necessary installation hardware and it comes with 10 ft of OEM spec hose, thread-on inlets, and compression fittings.
If you already have rubber hoses running from your transmission lines to your existing cooler, then you can either replace your hose with the new hose or connect your current hoses to the new cooler. view full answer...
Usually an OEM transmission cooler will be located inside the radiator where engine coolant will work to lower it's temperature before routing it back through the transmission return line. In such a situation a failed radiator can cause leakage of coolant into the transmission, a fairly common problem on some Nissan vehicles.
Some do use two separate cooling assemblies that can be stacked together or that are made as one unit but I am not aware of auto makers actually routing the trans... view full answer...
The best way to determine which line on a transmission cooler is the return line from the radiator is to use the following procedure:
1. Start engine while engine is cold
2. Place transmission shift lever in drive for no more than 10 seconds
3. Place in Park, stop engine, and remove keys
4. Identify the oil return line by feeling both oil lines. The coolest line is the oil return line.
On the aftermarket transmission cooler the ports are not input specific or output specific. It is not... view full answer...
The motor by itself is not available for Derale Hyper-Cool transmission cooler # D13960. You would need the complete fan assembly # D16618. view full answer...
The correct replacement thermostat for the Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kits like part # D13960 or part # D15660 is the Replacement Thermostat for Derale Fan Controls part # D16728.

The replacement can then simply be installed in reverse order. view full answer...

With transmission coolers you basically want to go with the largest one you can fit in front of the radiator. A very popular option is the part # D13504 which measures 11" Wide x 12" tall x 7/8" deep and would be a great choice.
To make the install as easy as possible you would want the part # D13025 which allows the cooler to install without having to cut or flare any lines.
The cooler does not attach directly to brackets of your radiator, but with it's push pins it installs very easily. view full answer...
I spoke with contact at Derale and he said if your existing temperature gauge is the Derale Temperature Gauge Kit for Transmission or Engine Oil # D13009, or another model that fits into the drain plug hole (1/8" NPT thread size) on the transmission pan then you can reuse it with the Derale Transmission Pan Cooler # D14207. The replacement oil filter is # D13092 view full answer...
Since the threaded part of the Derale Hyper-Cool Remote Transmission Cooler Kit # D15960 broke off I recommend using the Derale Premium In-Line Fan Control Thermostat with -8 AN Fittings # D35021 instead. This has the 180 degree on/165 degree off settings and the thermostat installs differently to the -8 AN connector so it will be a stronger setup. view full answer...
For your 2009 Toyota RAV4 there isn't a plug and play style of brake controller install harness so you'd have to hardwire one in with the # ETBC7 plus a 4-way kit part # 118412 if you do not have a 4-way already.
Those two parts would be all you need to install the brake controller part # 39523 that you mentioned in your 2009 Toyota RAV4.
I attached an install video for the ETBC7 installed in a Rav4 similar to your 2009 model. view full answer...
