Re: tranny lines

The LMC truck catalogs have nice diagrams. If you're in the Bellevue area during the weekday, you can stop by my office and take a look at my truck. Just about everything under the hood is factory.

Re: tranny lines

I would think you could run them how you like. As long as there going to the right hole in the radiator, and there not getting to HOT from passing by your headers.

Re: tranny lines

There are factory retaining clips attached to the oil pan mounting bolts, the one on the rear is a double and the one near the fuel pump is a single. As mentioned above, investing ina good factory manual or two or three will be the wisest money you put into you truck!! Honestly.....

Re: tranny lines

The transmission cooler is aftermarket. The stock set up is to use the radiator. If you want to use the cooler, it is probably easiest to run the lines directly to the cooler and just cap off the radiator.
