tranny cooler lines
#1
hey guys just installed an aftermarket cooler for my tranny.
first I used cheap coolant line because i didnt realize the pressure blew the line so i killed it bought some transmission cooler line from autozone installed it ran good.
then i was racing a buddy of mine in his ford focus too see how bad I leave him at 119mph focus (speed limiter)
and around 130 i heard a small popping noise so i killed it as soon as I heard it got out and looked and the line blew off clamp and all so i filled the tranny back up used the same clamp and eased it home (still works fine)
what can I use to clamp this down are there any (strong) clamps I need or what?
this is on a 2001 silverado 5.3
the way i run the cooler i cut the stock steel line put the hose on (tight fit) and clamped it (cheapest way)
