Keen for some advice on adding an AN fitting to connect up a hose to these trans cooler pip
I don’t have experience with them, so keen to get some ideas.
I want to cut the pipe before the hoses to add a barbed AN fitting. One with an olive maybe? I have a pipe cutter so no swarth. Will flush it regardless.
What size fitting would I use? Outer diameter of the pipe is 9.5mm.
Why? To add two trans hoses to an external cooler. It never gets super cold here and is either mild or incinerator hot.
Other idea I have is to disconnect the hose at the quick connect and just push on a hose over the ridge in the pipe and hose clamp it. Is that safe or acceptable? I don’t want it looking too bodgy.
Yes I plan on bypassing the radiator and using a good size cooler. It doesn’t snow here
