  Trans Cooler Stud, Stud

• Description:

  This is a genuine Ford automatic transmission oil cooler stud, catalogued as an M8 stud with both M8 x 17 and M8 x 21 thread sections and used to mount the auxiliary transmission oil cooler on a range of Ford vehicles including Transit Connect cooling assemblies. The stud provides a fixed threaded post that locates the cooler against its bracket and lets a nut clamp the cooler in place, holding it square in the airflow so the lines stay aligned and the cooler does not vibrate against surrounding structure. Owners reach for this stud when the original has corroded, stripped, or been damaged during a transmission cooler replacement, or when a cooler is being swapped and fresh mounting hardware is required to restore the factory clamp. Because it carries the weight of the cooler and resists road vibration, a clean, correctly seated stud is important to long cooler life. Manufactured to Ford specifications, it matches the original dual-thread dimensions so it threads into the host boss and accepts the original retaining nut without modification. Always confirm the threaded boss is clean and the mating bracket hole is free of distortion before installation, and torque the stud and its nut to the values given in the applicable transmission cooling service section. Inspect the cooler mounting tabs and lines for fatigue while the hardware is out, since a loose cooler will quickly fatigue the lines and the stud seat.
