oil cooling

Just installed a oil cooling system on my 03 f150 4.6. It sure lowered the oil temp. I bought a oil cooler on ebay then I purchased a oil filter sandwich adaptor to route the oil to the oil cooler. The only thing that took the time was waiting to get the oil sandwich adaptor in the mail. I heard this will make my oil last longer and bring the temp down. It is 98 degrees here with a heat index at 105. I pull a trailor so I wanted to keep the engine running cool in the summer time. The only thing I wish I did was get some better lines like some steal braided lines so I will not have to reeplace the rubber ones in the future.....

I like the steel braided lines, but you can never tell the condition of the line under the braiding.
