How are you guys getting your hands on the 2020 coolers?
I was told 6 months away!

What is the new oil filter part number? I want to see if I can use this new cooler with my thermostat off my oil filter housing for my current air to oil cooler.
**EDIT** Found it a couple posts back.
New Filter: Thead size M22 X 1.5 (93mm Diameter)
- Wix: 51592
- Donaldson: P550166
Old Filter: Thread size 13/16-16UN (94mm Diameter)
- Donaldson: P550518
Are you able to remove the threaded end inside the oil cooler and swap back on the original M22x1.5 threaded filter stub? I am running the BAT MOCAL SP2TC oil filter adapter plate with thermostat and fittings running to my air-oil cooler. This new cooler will not work with the new thread size.

It may be possible but I don't know if the sealing surface diameter is different on the 2020 vs 01-19 so that may render your current plate useless or useful. Someone would have to make a an oil housing nipple. I also don't know what size the cooler itself is threaded to.
no you can not. you will have to either make your own adapter or buy a whole new setup. i believe there is only 1 or 2 options for -10an sandwich adapters in the thread, none in -12an. never could confirm if diameter would be correct.
Has anyone tested the improvement with a LML cooler upgrade? Seems like that is a bolt on upgrade with a decent area improvement vs. this new one that is a LOT more work. For a LMM doing heavy towing on a mild tune, would the LML upgrade be the best route?
01-16 is the same cooler. the l5p 17-19 cooler is 50% bigger than the older gen and uses the same old style filter. it would for sure be an improvement, how much i dont know. i got a brand new one sitting on my shelf if you want it
Thanks for the clarification, I might upgrade my LMM to the L5p, but would like to know the oil temps before so that gauge is first. Maybe this winter.
I'm curious how you see it as a lot more work? You bolt this on with new bolts from the dealer and have to do some minor shaving on the exhaust manifold heat shield bracket if you're running LML manifolds. The LML oil cooler is identical as to what came on your truck. 17-19 has ~40% more cooling capacity (14 row vs 10 row on 01-16). 2020 has 20 rows offering an awesome 100% increase in cooling capacity.
Ok, so it may not be A LOT more work, but if the other one bolts on that is certainly easier.
They do both bolt on. What manifolds are you running? If you're running stock manifolds then you shouldn't have a problem other than buying the new bolts and outlet piece from the dealer.
They both bolt on just as easily as the other. The new one simply requires in additional bolt for the coolant adapter where the coolant leaves the cooler body. It genuinely is no extra work at all! :hug:
Thanks for correcting me guys, I thought my LMM manifolds would need shaving as well. Great to hear!
you guys will have to shave the lower rear heat shield mount regardless of lml exhaust manifold or stock. it does not just bolt straight on, if you left it, and cranked the bolts down, it will crack over time.
does no one read anymore? or is it just selective reading?

From what I gathered in your post, you stated it was a problem with LML manifolds. Apologies.
