Expert Reply:
There are several coolers recommended for your 1990 Dodge Caravan. I have incldued a link to them for you. The type of coolant the vehicle uses is not a factor. Transmission coolers are not vehicle specific and are flow through devices with no moving parts so the type of fluid and the vehicle are not issues.
We recommend installing the largest cooler that will fit in the vehicle. This is because transmission fluid cannot be over cooled and because a larger cooler will be more efficient. The most popular cooler we have is # D13503 and would be a good choice for you. I have included some transmission cooler links for you.
