tranny line question and gauge install

well from what I can see from looking at back posts is that i want to use the front line or the one that goes under the pan.<br>I plan on teeing in with compression fittings , Is this the correct line? Also it comes out goes under pan and goes to a black cylindrical object then comes back under the pan and heads towards front cooler. What is the cylinder it goes to and should I tee before or after this? Still waiting on delivery from genos but want to be ready when the gauges arrive

for a real easy and clean install get the factory cooler line from Dodge. The sender screws right in, no fuss.<br>Tim

Re:tranny line question and gauge install

well I did go with factory line , just couldnt get fittings I wanted for a clean looking install , and I guess It was my lucky Day, Dealer has been absorbed by a mega dealer and moved twice within last year and parts guy said he was tired of hauling this piece around. So I got factory line for $72.00<br>I think thats hard to beat and it just about fell into place

I haven't looked at it yet so maybe you guys can give me an idea... How difficult is it to swap the cooler lines?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Russ
