17" Wide x 12-1/2" tall x 3/4" deep, tube-fin cooler improves your vehicle's overall performance by ensuring proper fluid temperatures for both its engine and transmission with one compact system.
Features:
Specs:
Perhaps the simplest type of heat exchanger, the tube-fin effectively cools a variety of automotive systems. The concept is simple: Fluid cools as it travels through the core by transferring heat out to the fins. The fins then provide the surface area necessary for sufficient heat exchange to take place, allowing the heat pulled from the fluid to dissipate into the surrounding air. Add to that the unique turbulator technology - whereby fluids are agitated continuously to not only facilitate heat transfer, but also to prevent any undesirable drop in pressure - and you have an easy and effective cooling system.

17" Wide x 12-1/2" tall x 3/4" deep, tube-fin cooler improves your vehicle's overall performance by ensuring proper fluid temperatures for both its engine and transmission with one compact system.Package was delivered on time. Installed it the next day. Didn't realise it's for oil and transmition. Just needed the oil cooler. Either way it's installed. Took a bit as I mounted in a different location than in front of radiator. Only did the oil. Already have a trany cooler. However I might loop into the other side for a trany and use the whole radiator. So far so good
Without a video for my 2014 explorer and with limited written instructions I chose to find a repair shop that would do the installation. It cost me $360 to have the dual cooler installed. Most places won't consider third party parts to install and others that wanted to charge from $600 - $800 to install. Removing the front cowling, bumper, & headlights proved to be too big of a challenge without adequate instructions. Also following the installation I drove cross country pulling a trailer and I didn't trust my self with the work, and at near 70 years I no longer want to tackle such a job. Other than above I made it to California with out incident.
PS, it would have been helpful for an estimate of the additional engine oil and transmission fluid it would take to fill the new system.
This is a good product and installation was fairly straight forward. The directions do not address the transmission connection to the cooler. If it did, someone would have realized a part was missing from the kit. If you are installing this cooler on a Dodge you will need a different connector than the one provided. Dodge uses a snap in, rather than screw in, connector for the transmission line. I only discovered this by watching a video online which actually gives the Derale part number for the connector (I don't remember what it is). I explained this to the customer service agent and he did not believe me nor would he send me one for free. Since I ordered this kit specifically for a Ram I feel this adaptor should have been included in the kit. Disappointed about that, otherwise it seems like a good kit. I haven't tested it yet since I am waiting for the adaptor.
I have not had a chance to install this unit yet. From the looks of it though it is worth it. Install should be a breeze too. I purchased this for a 05 Dodge Caravan. It cam with all the different oil filter adapters color coded for the filter you use.

How was the install? Are you happy with it? Any things you wished you knew before you began the install?- thanks. - getting ready to do the same
I installed the etrailer derale transmission cooler on my 2012 Toyota Tacoma. Hauled home a 3500lb tractor 3000 miles up hilly terrain and had no problems at all. Works great.
I haven't had the transmission cooler installed yet but the service I received in ordering and the shipping was way above what I ever expected. Very friendly customer reps and they know their job.
Easily installed to an 05 town and country. I think the 3/8 compression/ barbed fittings should be included in the kit though. Also do yourself a favor and make sure you get the hoses on the cooler before you tie it in place cause they go on HARD. Otherwise pretty simple. Installing for towing purposes. Took about 1 hour complete.
This cooler does a good job keeping transmission oil engine oil cooler.
This kit was easy to install on my application and works very well.
Everything arrived intact, no damage. Instructions were clear. Products were put on with ease. Thanks
Received it packaging was great the cooler was in perfect condition all items seem accounted for. Cant wait to install it.
Tranny side had no problems. Oil side kept leaking and was eventually disconnected. Hose clamps for hoses need to be replaced with sealed units.
The kit is excellent, with a great price. I haven’t installed it yet. The kit doesn’t include the reducer for the smaller hose. Fast shipping and great support. Detailed Instructions would be extrodinarilly helpful.
The customer service is excellent thanks for the product. It is exactly as on the web site. Installing it on my truck. Honest, honorable people. I will continue to do business with. Thanks again

1 year later and still going strong. It does make a difference but have t measured the temp. However, pulling a 32 foot travel trailer I do notice a difference when I turn the fan on
