oil cooler upgrade?

Are there any upgraded oil coolers available for these trucks? If there is what one is best, and also is it worth going with one?

Stock. Have the o-rings replaced when they start leaking and head on down the road.

they are leaking and was told it was going to be 300 to 500 to replace the seals by the Ford place. I was thinking it would be as cheap to upgrade the oil cooler.

If yuo havnt done your coolant/upgrade it, or like whats in there, wouldnt be a bad time to replace it, since the coolant runs through the oil cooler as well???
