A transmission cooler isn't a vehicle-specific item. As long as your transmission has two lines running from the transmission to the radiator, and you have the available space on the front of the radiator directly behind the grille, you can install a cooler.
Unless you live in a climate that's freezing most of the year, it's recommended to get the largest transmission cooler that will fit in the available space. If you have 11 x 8-3/4 inches of available space, the Derale # D13503 transmission cooler would work great. If you have a little more room, say 11 x 12 inches, the larger # D13504 would work good.
The cooler will install inline on the return line from the radiator to the transmission, as shown in the articles I've linked for you. I'll also link to a typical install video. The procedure would be different on your Expy, but you'll get a good idea of what the install involves by viewing it.
