You could go with the V10 one which is bolt in or go with the 6.0 one like I have done.

The hardest thing was to get the hose barbs into the hoses.

Access to the cooler is a bear if you have A.C. There is limited clearence between the radiator and the A.C. condenser.

Don't most of us have AC? How many trucks do you know of without AC?

Anyways, I took out the cover and removed the latch and 2 bolts, 8mm to release the condenser and that gave me enough room.

I got the TruCool 4739 from Diesel Site, and mounted it right behind the grill, in front of everything else. I plumbed it in-line, after the stock cooler - leaving the stock cooler in-place and working....

No there is a stock by-pass setup in the system - and even in stock form, the fluid won't go through the stock cooler if it is too cold - so adding another cooler in-line would not effect the stock by-pass set up!
