Recommended Transmission Cooler For 2015 Ram 1500 Pulling a 6,000LB Travel Trailer
Question:
What transmission cooler will best work and fit in my CC Ram 1500 with the 5.7 Hemi ? Towing a 6,000 lb TT
asked by: Harold M
Expert Reply:
I recommend the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit # D13503 for towing your 6,000lb travel trailer with your 2015 Ram 1500 that has the 5.7L Hemi. This is a class III transmission cooler and is sized to work well with trailers that fall into a class III rating which is between 3,500lbs and 8,000lbs.
If you anticipate hauling trailers larger than that or live in a region that is very hot you can move up to the larger Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit # D13504. This is a class IV cooler and works well with trailers from 5,000lbs to 12,000lbs.
