Transmission Cooler Recommendation for a 2010 Ford F-150
Question:
I have a 2010 F150 W/O factory tow package. I want to add a transmission cooler, but the rubber lines going to the radiator appear to be 1/2. Most coolers have 3/8 or 11/32 lines. Can you recommend a cooler, the TT trailer we have weighs less than 4000lbs.

Expert Reply:
We do have several transmission coolers that use NPT 1/2 inch fittings though the hose size may be different. It is the inner diameter that you would need to know. The 1/2 inch NPT cooler use a 3/8 inch inner diameter hose.
Since transmission fluid cannot be over cooled, the largest cooler that will fit in the engine compartment is recommended. In the 1/2 NPT category, the largest we carry is # D13614 that you have referenced. I have included a link to a video review of this cooler and a link to an FAQ on transmission coolers for you.
