Question

Question:

I've been checking out other transmission cooler for my 14 Chevy Silverado lt v6 4.3 you recommend me the D13504 What is difference between D13105 and the one you recommend me D13504. I see that the D13105 shows (confirmed to fit) only 14 chevy Silverado with the 6.2 v8. Would it still fit my with the 4.3 v6?

In order to reduce the transmission fluid temperatures in your 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500, I recommend using a transmission cooler like the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit part # D13504. Generally speaking, the best transmission cooler for you will be the largest one you have space available for in front of your radiator/condenser behind the grill. As long as you have 11" wide x 12" tall x 7/8" deep of space in this location, the transmission cooler will work well for you.

The kit comes with everything you will need to install on your vehicle. I have also attached an installation video of this cooler installed on a similar vehicle for you as well.

The main difference between the Derale Series 8000 part # D13504 and the Derale Series 7000 part # D13105 is how the cooler is constructed. The 8000 series cooler uses plat-fin technology whereas the 7000 series cooler uses a tube-fin technology. Plate-fin technology is more advanced than tube-fin technology and will provide better cooler efficiency. As long as your have 16-5/8" wide x 12-5/8" tall x 3/4" deep of space to mount the Derale Series 7000 in front of your radiator/condenser behind your grill then yes, it will work on your 2014 Chevy Silverado with the 4.3L V6 engine.
