Been a while since last post, a few new problems

while you have all that out go over every inch of wire and parts and repair/ replace anything suspect.

Yea for sure, now is the time to do all that. Btw I ended up cutting the tranny cooler lines since I was having such a ***** of a time getting them loose so do those absolutely have to be replaced or is there a way that I can put connection fittings on them and tie them back together? I cut them in an optimal spot to leave the possibility of reconnecting them open

 

[SunlitComet]

did you pull the retainer clips first where they mount on the tranny.

You can get a flare tool and put a union or you can get some fittings and run braided lines.

Yea I pulled the clips but still could not get them and I cut them after I had a good grip with a wrench but it stripped off so I said **** it. But thanks retorq, thats what I was think but wasnt quite sure

 

[SunlitComet]

wow never saw that happen before.

 

[raptorforme93]

Once again I spoke too soon. Haha. Had no idea about those tiny little clips, no one mentioned them when I asked about tips for tranny removal. They just came right out so once again I learned how to do something the fun way. Oh well I guess, lesson learned

Anyone know the diameter of the tranny cooler lines? Im going to pick up a flare tool later and would be more comfortable knowing it exactly but I figure any standard fittings for the tool would work

sorry not specified.
