oil cooler removal

[klcammie]

Searched here can't find answer. I discovered an oil leak while changing oil. It's coming out the bottom of the oil cooler[the mounting plate for the filter]. So what's behind the plate. Do I need to drain coolant? Where is best place to get new gasket?

I would go through my local Cummins dealer, but Dodge or even Rockauto should be able to source gaskets. Yes, you need to drain the coolant.

Ok thanks I was afraid I would have to drain coolant, just changed the coolant 2 weeks ago to bad I didn't notice the leak then.

Just found the two gaskets needed at Pure Diesel Power. Fifty dollars plus shipping. They are Cummins parts. Thanks again.
