Do I Need Any Additional Parts To Mount The Derale Transmisson Cooler On My 2015 Ram 1500
Question:
Additional parts needed to install in a 2015 Ram with 5.7 Hemi
asked by: Harold
Expert Reply:
The Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler # D13504 is designed to connect to the factory transmission lines on your 2015 Ram 1500. I checked and you have 3/8" lines on your Ram so you may need an adapter as the included hose fits on 11/32" barbed inlets.
I have had luck leaving the hose in the warm sun to heat up making it more flexible and it allowed it to slide onto the slightly larger lines with no issue. I recommend measuring the return line on your Ram where you intend to install the Derale cooler to verify your exact outer diameter.
