Engine oil cooler lines What to do
my lines Did not Leak when i bought it home, i has been siting in a barn for the last 5 years, but they have been bent and have some kinks and have been welded before
i would like to change the lines and the oil cooler because its old and not looking to good any more so i was thinking about cutting the pipes where the ends are with like 4 inches of pipe flare the end i cut like a brake line and replace the metal lines i cut out with hose insted and use some some good hose clamps and replace the oil cooler with this http://www.jegs.com/i/Derale/259/127...ductId=1290465 like this whats you though on this Thanks Thomas

Re: Engine oil cooler lines What to do
So your cooler actually cools the engine oil, and not the transmission fluid? I will say that my experience has been the fewer connection you have the fewer leaks will occur.

I would take the lines to a hydraulic shop that makes hydraulic lines and have them make you new ones. Then you know they'll be right.
