Transmission Fluid line Flow Confusion

[alumarine]

I know there's a ton of threads on transmission cooler installs and I've searched and read a lot.

Trouble is there's also a bunch of conflicting info.

Unfortunately the links to some of the better install write ups no longer have the pictures working.

I need to know which line is the Send/Output/Hot line from the transmission to the rad and which line is the Return/Input/Cool line from the rad to the transmission.

I would like to reference the rear line on the transmission and the forward line.
I've read a lot about up/down- left/right.
It's confused the heck out of me.

thanks

To answer the OP's question, I agree, a picture is way quicker than looking for the needed info in a video. But, when it comes down to doing a repair or mod, I'd take a well documented video over a well documented write-up any day. Maybe I'm biased because I make videos with [MENTION=102606]infamousRNR[/MENTION] but even the most detailed write-ups leave me still asking questions sometimes how exactly something was done because it lacks the extra detail well done videos will have.

Great video. Really helps with the install.
Noticed you referred to a Cooler Return Line Chart.
That helped too.
