[kickywow]

I am putting cooling lines in my car and new to know which line goes from where to where, pictures would definetly help out!

It really doesn't make any difference which way they go - the tranny doesn't care.

The fitting towards the front of the trans is the out towards the cooler and the rear fitting is the return. That what you want to know?

Really?

thank you, now im just having the problem fitting them in there, wish i had a bender...

You can bend them around an old pulley with pretty good results.

that is brilliant! why didnt i think of that, thanks!

Just use a smaller pulley for tighter bends. That's what I did for years, until someone gifted me a bender.

If you don't have any small pulleys you can also use a piece of pipe if the bend is real sharp. Even a deep well socket will work sometimes. I have 2 tubing benders and find that most of the time I end up using a piece of pipe or deep well socket because it's easier to clamp down in the vise and bend around it rather than mess with the bender.
