Oil Cooler Bypass #1
Hack Nation's oil thermostat bypass #1 for the Cummins ISX and X15: every drop of oil through the cooler.
Replaces the stock oil thermostat in your Cummins and routes 100% of the oil through the oil cooler, all the time, to help regulate oil temperature on long, heavy pulls.
What makes it better
- 100% of the oil through the cooler. The stock ISX oil thermostat holds oil out of the cooler until about 235°F. This bypass sends it all through the cooler from the start.
- Runs more like an old Cat. Hack Nation owners report oil running about 10–15°F above coolant.
- Fast install. About an hour, against four to five hours for a dual oil cooler upgrade.
- Proven design. Designed and patented by Grizzly Specialized, made in the USA. Hack Nation reports about 2,000 sold with 99% positive feedback.
Why it matters
- The right way to do it. Pulling the thermostat without a bypass leaves oil misdirected and can cause serious oiling problems. This part is engineered for the job.
- Installed your way. Fit it yourself, or we'll install it in our shop or with our mobile service.
#1 or #2?
On the passenger side, measure from the start of the oil cooler, from the head of the Allen plug to the first bevel: #1 is 3-1/4 in, #2 is 4 in. 2017-and-newer ISX / X15 takes #1, 2010-and-older ISX takes #2, and 2010–2017 ISX can take either.
What's included
The oil thermostat bypass. O-rings, snap rings and other hardware are sold separately.
Fitment
#1 fits all 2017-and-newer Cummins ISX / X15. 2010–2017 ISX can use #1 or #2.
Send us your ESN or CPL and we'll confirm fitment before it ships.
