Tansmission cooling lines, have them made or get new ones??
Well i'm on to my tranny cooling lines. I bought some nice braided hydrolic hose to use last year. But one clamp gave out last weekend and i'm looking at taking the hoses down to CarQuest and have some ends press fitting on. But I'm not sure if anyone has done this?? Is it worth the cost or shouldi just order some premade ones form some where??

My hard lines were gone wheni got the truck.
Did you press fit those yourself?? It might be cheeper if i get a fitting crimper and just build them my self. |

Check the links in my post.you'll see the crimper I used.
I don't know what customs lines cost but it's prob.cheaper to have them made. If your in NO hurry I might be able to make you some. Cost of materials only + shipping.
