How to remove Chevy transmission cooling lines

[@stevefranklin9920]

I’d like to know how you got all that room up in there to get your hands and arms in there to be able to get to them that easy!

[@LSXperts72]

I had the exhaust off that made the whole room

[@stevefranklin9920]

@@LSXperts72 yeah, I realized I had to take the pipes on the truck I’m working on down too in order to remove the trans easier. Thanks for the info!

[@LSXperts72]

@@stevefranklin9920 you have to bring down the exhaust otherwise it’s way harder worth taking the exhaust off

[@RandyLahey6]

Fr i was under stands and couldnt get the top one off me and 2 buddies spent 1.5hrs and every tool except a line wrench. Ended up cutting line as close to the nut as possible to get a socket on it. We put tranny in tomorrow so we'll see if we can put reflare the line

[@DannyB-cs9vx]

This looks like the same setup as my 2005 Dodge truck. I have been trying without success using those tools that slide in around the tube. thanks.

[@madetohelpyou]

Would be nice if u advised those that do not know how to safely re-install the lines as this will save them time & hardship later if the line comes back out. Thx

Thank you for posting

[@coyoteserranoband]

Sweet. What size is that clip?

[@rl4889]

3/8

[@jjott6550]

Rebuilding an old 91 v6 s10, my lines were already disconnected up front, where do they attach to? I can’t really find a straight answer online 😅

[@LESmith-u4v]

I wish my transmission and lines were that clean

[@jameswahl6871]

Again did u drop the exhaust system to get all that room by the trany

[@LSXperts72]

Yes but even with the exhaust on I’ve had enough room to do so

[@josephacosta474]

Can you please tell me if those cooling línes transport transmission fluid or coolant?

[@LSXperts72]

Transmission fluid lines they go to a trans fluid cooler or sometimes the radiator

[@SalasRene]

What's that tube/pipe sticking out from the top... What connects to it and where does it too?

[@LSXperts72]

Breather tube normally a hose to the top bell housing bolt but doesn’t really matter

[@keenowaltdiy]

Can you reuse those clips that you pulled out? And if you’re replacing a line you can just pop the old one out and pop the new one in?

[@LSXperts72]

Yes they’re reusable as many times as you want

[@cringeski4177]

Drop the exhaust from the headers?

[@carlosherrera8541]

Is there o rings inside the screws or on flange lines

[@LSXperts72]

Yes two o rings on each fitting one seals the line the other seals against the transmission case

[@FlakeMaker]

I put a 6 inch lift on my old 2002 truck and it streach out all my lines. Had to replace my brake lines and put new fluids in. Now my coolent lines just busted down the road my transmission over heated now i gotta replace my coolant lines 😂😂😂

[@crazyhorseracing6130]

Is there an o-ring that goes on the line to seal it?? Thanks!

[@LSXperts72]

No, It’s mechanical seal

[@integr8er66]

​@@LSXperts72Wrong, YES there definitely is an O ring inside that fitting, that is what seals it, the clip just keeps it from backing out, and there is a plastic cover that goes over the clip to keep it in place

[@LSXperts72]

@@integr8er66 he asked “in the line” the line itself does not have any o rings.

[@bvnseven]

@@integr8er66 , so the O-ring is already in the fitting that you slide the line into after putting the clip on???

[@alanpadgett5868]

Thank you for this. 👍🇺🇸

[@chrisheffernan6600]

There is much better way, especially to get into those hard to reach areas. Its called a Transmission line disconnect tool. Slips over the line like a fuel line disconnect tool, run it in, and pull the line out. The clip stays on the nut too so you don't accidently lose or break it.

[@paulyoung4814]

Thanks

[@niterbum]

nice video..........i had one of those clips fail at the radiator that held in my engine oil cooler line....engine is siezed

[@LSXperts72]

niterbum so sorry to hear that

[@digi3218]

They should have some type of dust cover that goes over them to help them stay in. That sucks though dude.. Very unlucky :(

[@vdubbeatz]

Did you drop the Trans for better access? If so, how?

[@LSXperts72]

No i was actually swapping the transmission for a used one but if you want to drop it a little bit take the trans meme bet off and it will tilt a bit for more access

[@randallanthony1794]

Where can I find the trans lines for my 93 gmc truck

[@rl4889]

Rockauto, Amazon, 1Aauto, carquest

Thanks!

[@ricardoooo1969]

So easy when you have the trans dropped down

[@MrPavePaws]

Damn man its like watching Michael J Fox 🦊 do camera 🎥 work

[@pierrececile9611]

I guess you just remove the Y-pipe/cross-over pipe for more room...

[@theuglydog8044]

It must be me! I can't get the da** thing to go back together, no matter how hard I push. Leave it to the designers to take something as simple as a threaded connection and turn it into crap.

[@goyohernandez5300]

Is this a 4l60e?

[@andrescastillo2171]

Como puedo pedir esa pieza en alguna refaccionaria

[@toobad9946]

What about the other end? They have two ends! Also, the connections are easy. It's pulling the old one out and installing the new one that's difficult. This is like making a video about a cup of coffee and all you show is taking a sip after you've done everything else.

[@reynaldomalapad]

Nice 👍👍👍 idol

[@Kwoodfrmtx]

Not a single video of someome puttimg them in

[@faize28]

In the same boat

[@Kwoodfrmtx]

@@faize28 put the clips on first then use a pick to pry one side out a little bit and push the line in they only go on one way

[@Jay.mega1]

You can just get a little pic set from auto zone for like 7 bucks and get it without dropping the tranny and without messing anything up those c clips are annoying as hell

[@LSXperts72]

I have ones just didn’t show them I live c clips tho
