Re: What transmission coolers are you swappers using?

Yes Derale sells the thermostats. They also have fan driven with thermostatically controlled switches for turning on the fan. They recommended I buy the one in my 1st post with fan. As far as the thermostat is concerned, I'm not so sure I would need the thermostatic valve. This is a fair weather truck, only driven during summer. If it was an every day driver, in cold weather, then I would say "Yes" for sure.
