Re: NEED HELP! leaky tranny cooler lines

I used rubber hoses on a 71 Chevy I had and they worked great. I've heard somewhere not to use fuel line...something like, it will not last long. maybe someone else can verify that.
Back when my Suburban had an automatic, I made up some hydraulic lines for it. I went to a place that specializes in hydraulic fittings and showed them the type I needed and then cut the hose, and crimped on the fittings at work.
