Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2008 Chevrolet Colorado 3.7 L
Question:
What would be the best transmission cooler to get. I will be pulling a 3800 pound trailer occasionally in longer trips.

Expert Reply:
Since transmission fluid cannot be over cooled, you will want to choose the largest and highest rated transmission cooler that will fit on your 2008 Chevrolet Colorado. In this case, I recommend installing the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit, # D13504. This cooler measures 11 inches wide x 12 inches tall x 7/8 inches deep. I have included a short video for you.
For a vehicle specific fitting you can use the Derale Snap-In Adapter Fitting for GM, # D13035.
