My front soft transmission cooler lines on my FJ62 are on their way out. I need to get them replaced asap or I'm afraid I might break a line on a long drive and get into trouble. Thinking about replacing all 4 while I'm at it.
Not surprisingly I can't find new ones anywhere. Looks like people around here regularly just build their own. Which doesn't seem too tricky except for maybe that 90 degree fitting on the left side of the radiator.
Any tips on putting these hoses together? Best practices for hoses or fittings? My truck is currently in the shop and I'd like to go ahead and get supplies but I'm working blind until I get it back. If anyone can tell me the specs on the hoses or fittings I'd appreciate it.
I've never made a hose before so go ahead and talk to me like someone who's never made a hose before.
