How and what did you use get the tranny cooler lines off the tranny? I was just under the car looking at the fittings on the tranny and it looks pretty tight up there.

My problem is I have to replace those lines. I have a hole in one of the lines and its leaking tranny fluid like crazy. So I can either cut the line and splice a piece of rubber hose or replace the line which is what I would rather do because of where the hole is (right next to the starter) it would be kinda awkward to cut it there.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Thanks

If you are pulling the tranny, just lower it with the lines attached. This will allow you to get into them alot better. Use a 1/2' flare nut wrench.

 

Thanks!

See thats the point the tranny isn't coming out....yet anyway..lol

I just decided to cut an inch out of the line and re-flare each side and use a rubber hose in between for now(BEsides I couldn't wait any longer for someone here to come rescue me...lol). I messed with trying to get the line off but I don't have a wrench here long enough and I could tell I was starting to round off the fitting at the tranny.

But if anyone has some info on how they got theirs off please post...
