I went to the hydraulic shop today and ordered a set of 3/8" hydraulic lines with the double flares at each end. The transmission end has a 90* hard elbow and the top end has a straight end. I can run these up above the transmission and parallel to the engine oil cooler lines. I think this will...
Abbylind I am still waiting patiently for a report on the LMC transmission cooler lines. I have Mr. Rusty sitting here and he needs to have the transmission lines, flex-plate, exhaust replaced. I have to get rolling on that but have been holding off waiting for a fit and finish report on the...
I added a gallon. It kept draining while it was setting there. I am assuming that it was the bottom line from the radiator cooler due to the amount that drained out. It was driven to my place from about 7 miles away. So I think all is well. In spring I will service the transmission and change...
No rubber will just rot off. But any who I did a quick fix on a bad cooler line today in 178 weather outside on the ground. Total cost was about $25. in materials. Today after work I decided Mr. Rusty will not fix himself. I went and bought a short piece of 5/16" steel tubing and 4 compression...
Look who I found bleeding out in my driveway. Mr. Rusty returns. More fun times are ahead. This one is not that bad. Just bad timing. Very cold week planned. Snow plow truck could be handy with a pending storm. See where it is leaking? Right at the clamp. Seems like it snagged something and gave...
Rubber hose is fine if you run on pavement all the time. A stick the size of a pencil will rip the rubber hope right off. I know. I done it. Hit a piece of banding material while plowing and sliced it. I was leaving a blood trail for about 10 minutes. Also off road I always make sure the metal...
My guess would be 5/16" due to the fact that a 1/2" crows foot wrench will loosen and tighten the fittings in the transmission case and radiator cooler. 3/8" is 9/16". That is an easy fix. 1/2 hour and report back. Thank you. Good Luck.
You can piece the line with a double flair fitting. Even a compression fitting will work. That is your call. Then just split some 3/8" fuel line and add it to the outside. that will cushion the clamp and protect the line. Bending mew lines isn't all that bad. Getting them back where they belong...
