Replace Tranny cooler lines with Hose what fittings would be best?
Hi
Will replace the steel lines with braided hose and wonder if I should go straight or 45deg fittings on the tranny?
On the cooler side I'll use one straight and one 90deg.
Will use 1/4 NPT to AN6 adapters on the tranny/cooler.

two 45*s was a good angle. straight will probably work fine though. dont you have to use teflon lined hose for the trans lines?

No, only for brake fluid.
