I need to replace my tranny cooling hoses but don't know the exact specs so i can order them need a little guidance please.
You'll probably have to cut the stock ones off of the metal lines with a razor blade too. I know I did, they were fused on there pretty good after 13 years and 160k miles.
The original hose on our trucks is probably 10mm. 3/8's ID hose works fine. If you want a tight fit you can use 11/32. Get trans cooler hose. For the OE lines that go from the trans metal lines to the radiator you probably only need 3-4 feet. You can measure your original lines for the exact number.
The rubber parts? Just go to an automotive parts store and tell them you need some power steering\transmission cooler hose with whatever size it is that you need. They'll know what you need. Just don't use heater hose as it isn't rated for oil use
