hey rusty, are the transmission lines still going fine changed to rubber hoses? im thinking of doing this to mine as they are a little crushed as well. just wondering what kind of hose you used and did you just unscrew the old lines at joins and change to rubber hose from there, or did you cut the lines in a certian place and join there?

You need to use transmission cooler hose either 8mm or 5/16" and make sure your bump stops are working effectively and you won't have a problem....

Yeh mate the lines have been fine now. I used a pipe cutter to cut the lines near the tranz, then just fed the rubber hose over it a few inches and double clamped. I also ran them up alot higher and out of the way.

Hope this helps.
