In the day of being able to cross matching auto parts I can not belive i was givin this power steering cooler. It was not even close to my cooler that I was changeing out. I called ahead and made sure it was correct part and in stock. I also paid online because my wife was picking it up because my truck a Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 had a power steering leak in the cooler (a smaller version of a radiator). I was worried because of the low price but was told by the parts sales person it was the right and he new of people that used this part and it was correct. Well it was 25% of the size and looked like it was for a Harley O wait is was to small for that also. Im 50 years old and Im a crane mechanic , and think a high school kid could see bit was not the OEM cooler and the price was low because it was not correct for a replacement. This happednt on a sunday and i them was stuck waiting for a on line correct part. I was assured it was for my truck!

Though the cooler is only half the size of the original one I'll assume it's capable. Being aluminum I should not have to replace it ever again.

This was far from an exact fit. It was much faster and easier to buy the replacement part from the GM dealer for $100. I brought this back.

Comments about Imperial Power Steering Oil Cooler:
I have a 1997 Toyota Tacoma. One of the lower power steering return lines (metal line) rusted and started leaking. Local repair shop called Toyota who wanted $300 plus labor to fix. I ordered this kit for [$] from Advanced Auto Parts. Dropped the skid plate to gain access to the lines. Cut and flanged the lines and installed this cooler in front of a/c radiator. Took about an hour and I was back up and running. This kit saved me $300 and now I don't have to worry about original power sterring lines rusting anymore. The kit can be installed either vertically or horizontally and comes with a the needed hardware to mount it.

Q:
I have a 2002 dodge grand caravan I have a power steering problem . the return hose down by that connects to the oil cooler and leads up to the reservoir tank and the other line keeps busting holes in the lines where it feels like that the hoses that im getting are not high pressure that wont take power steering fluid. what do I need to keep it from not blowing out im tired of replacing hoses and other parts that lead to power steering, Power steering pump is good.Asked on 1/7/2013 by sparky1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
With reference to your inquiry on the Imperial Power Steering Oil Cooler - Part No. 241009 I assume there is too much of back pressure in the hose that leads to the reservoir and other lines. I would suggest taking your vehicle to a certified mechanic for a proper diagnosis before buying and having parts installed that may not (solve/be) the problem. For any further assistance please feel free to call us at: 1-877-238-2623 or visit the nearest Advance Auto store and one of our representatives will gladly assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.Answered on 1/9/2013 by John the Car-Doc from AAP

Q:
f-250 turbo diesel does it matter what size power steering cooler you put on ??Asked on 2/5/2012 by mike from wendell n.c.1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
Power steering coolers are not always necessary, if you are running stock tires and not doing lots of hard driving than you should be fine but if you start stressing the system i.e. hydro boost, big tires, 4 wheeling, rock crawling, mudding or racing then you want to run a cooler. This Imperial Power Steering Oil Cooler (Part No. 241009) will fit vehicles with 3/8" I.D. power steering return hose. So you can use this part in your F-250 Turbo Diesel vehicle.Answered on 2/6/2012 by John the Car-Doc from AAP

Q:
How do I install the cooler for a 04 Dodge Ram 1500?Asked on 9/10/2010 by Anonymous2 answers
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
First you will need to mount the cooler. Then run your return line from the rack and pinion assembly to the cooler. Then have another tube running from the other end of the cooler back to the pump/reservior. Be sure that when you mount the cooler, you mount it in a place that will allow air to pass through it.Answered on 9/13/2010 by Mike from AAPA:
