What do you all prefer?
I've read good things about:
Russel
Earls
Fragola

Not so good things about Summit

Looking to run fuel line, tranny cooler, and PS cooler lines.
 
Earl's vapour gaurd were hassle free on high pressure fuel lines so far. I'd hate to blow a line on my exhaust.
 
I have been using Earls push lock style AN fittings for years. A couple years back I had a trans cooler line blow a fitting, first and only. My mistake as I had used a piece of standard 3/8 line rather than the proper Earls hose. Make sure that you use the proper hose. I take it another step now and use gates heat shrink hose clamps as insurance. Suspenders and a belt. I use hard lines on all fluid lines and only use the rubber lines at frame to motor or body connections to give it a little flex.

I have used Earls , Russell and Aeroquip. All 3 have been solid. The right hose and proper assembly
 
I can't really add much at this point because I haven't gotten my hands on anything I've ordered yet, but for the trans cooler on my FJ62, the only vendor I could easily find that made adaptors for the M14-1.5 & M16-1.5 to AN6 was Fragola. I end up buying two of each from Summit. For hose, I went with an Evil Energy kit from Amazon they had decent reviews. Once I get everything installed I can give you an update.

Btw the Hayden 689 Cooler comes with AN6 input and output if you're looking for a trans cooler.
 
I ran summit ends on my entire FJ60 fuel and coolant system (ferd motor swap) Worked great honestly.
