    80e Trans Line Question

    What has everyone used to extend their rear trans line when doing an 80e swap?

    Tubing cutter for the metal line and then trans cooler hose with hose clamps x 2 on each end of hose.

    When I first did my swap I did similar to RandomHero except I used hard line to AN adapters with the ferrules in them. Now I have completely ditched the factory hard lines and just ran all new -6AN pushlok hose.
