Radiator Trans Cooler Line Fittings
I’m in the process of converting the factory lines over to stainless braided with AN fittings and have the correct fitting for the 4l8E and the tru-cool however the 5/8x 18 I’ve found referenced in other threads will not thread into the radiator. What have you guys found to work?

It should be a -6 straight thread but there is a catch. The factory fittings have that cone shaped washer, which pulls the trans cooler to the radiator end tank can creates a seal. If you do not use a fitting that does not have the cone shape washer the cooler will " push" into the end tank and engine coolant will pour onto the floor. Dont ask how I know.
