Expert Reply:
If you want to install a transmission and oil cooler, then the Derale Combination Transmission and Engine Oil Cooler # D15902 would be a great option. If I had to choose one over the other, I would go with a transmission cooler to improve towing performance and minimize wear and tear on your Dodge Caravan's transmission. The plate-fin transmission cooler kit # D13503 is a popular and reliable choice. The most efficient cooler installation location is in front of the AC condenser.
Please check out the attached video of a Caravan installation and attached transmission cooler FAQ article.
