Today I installed the HD oil cooler for my 2008 Ultra The only required tools were 7/8" socket with a 10" extention and a 7/16" Allen Wrench, and a 7/16" and 3/8" and 5/16" socket. easy do it yourself project and saved $$. This is my short instruction sheet.
1-Remove oil filter (Reuse or replace) your choice.
2-use 7/8" socket with extention to remove the oil filter threaded nipple from bike.
3-put the gasket on the new adapter,place adapter in position on bike, thread new threaded nipple into center of adapter and tighten down assembly with the 7/16" Allen Wrench.
4-use a 7/16" socket to remove the voltage regulator from its 2 mounting studs. (let it hang by the wires)
5-The Oil cooler mounting plate has 3 holes- The oil cooler has 3 studs-The chrome cover has 3 holes,,,The Plate then the chrome cover then the cooler..one assembly held together with 3 3/8" nilon lock nuts.
6- The plate has 2 more holes for mounting to the voltage regulator smounting studs, place it into position and replace the voltage regulater over top of the plate, re-install the 2 7/16" nuts to secure the voltage regulater and cooler plate into position.
7- Route the hoses from the adapter to the cooler and tighten down the hose clamps using a 5/16" socket... replace the oil filter and your set...Well how was that? I was quoted $135 for the dealer to do it. The cooler is themostat controled to open at 185*F so check your oil level after a ride, I'm guessing maybe 10 ounces is the cooler capacity...Hope this helps.

 

Thanks for the oil cooler info,
Is is necessary to drain the oil before oil filter removal or not.

Thanks

 

No, The oil filter holds enough oil to make a mess when you remove it, maybe a total of a cup was lost. My bike was serviced 150 miles before the cooler install and was as clear as a bottle of jack. so I reused the filter when I was done, if I was to have 500 miles on the oil I would have replaced the filter, but thats just me...

 

Thanks for the reply.

I installed the Jagg 10 row + adapter w/o thermostat yesterday on the Ultra. I ended up with a good however longer install.

I had a little setback when I tried to install a new Russell Pro-System (Drag Specialtiies) oil cooler hose kit, one of the Pro-Sys compression fittings broke on assembly.

I ended up just using the supplied rubber hose & black gear clamps instead. I quickly lost confidence with the Russell aluminum fittings.

Also, I was a little disappointed with the button head screws that came with the Jagg anti-rotation kit. They really should have supplied matching socket cap screws as came with the adapter. The button head screws use a 1/8" allen wrench where as the cap screws use a 5/32"

 

Now that you got the cooler you should check this out....
