Fixed it fer ya, Its western fluid coupling and they are dicks if you dont know yer terminology. They know WTF is going on with hydro fittings and lines.

I'm hijacking the thread for a second.. would something like this work for tranny cooler lines? Like say rated for 300 psi and a few hundred degrees?

Everett Line and Hose next to Six Robblees. They have always done me good.

Really--I have never ever had a problem with them guys. And granted I don't know all the terminology either--just enough to know what I want...

tranny cooler lines? Jeff what are you doing to have a tranny have THAT much pressure? Typical systems run about 40 psi max...

It's for a friend.. DTT runs pressures a lot higher then stock.. And even higher then other aftermarket tranny builders... And now that I think of it.. I think it's only 200 he needs.. not 300.

Western Fluid Components

I got all my Tranny fluid line from them...all I bought though was bulk Parker Hi-temp/pressure line. Then barbed fittings...

Not cheap stuff...
