M1088 A0 Trans Cooler lines

I am wondering if anyone know what type/size of ends are on both sides of the transmission cooler lines. We need to replace ours as we relocated the cooler into the frame rails and now the hoses are too long. Trying to have the hoses made up before we pull everything. The Hose Builder at Fastenal said it can be up to a week to make them, so we are looking to avoid downtime!

Thanks for any help!

Looks like a #12 jic.

Cheaper to buy hose and reusable fittings and cut and make your own on the spot.

There is a thread somewhere but its cargo trucks. The lines were leaking and had to be replaced. The parker store can make them on the spot. Not cheap though.

I had a transmission cooler line go bad when I was bringing my truck back from Texas. A bicycle inner tube and 3 hose clamps lasted for over 500 miles. I got another one made at a local truck place and it was around $110 and they made it while I waited. It was the line that goes under the driver and did not have a T in it to feed the sample ports on the passenger side. My truck is a 1995 1078 A0.20180517_193242.jpg20180917_142631.jpg

I did the same thing and had a pair made locally for $139. Dropped them off, grabbed lunch, they were there when I came back:



I see you're in WA state. If you're near Portland, they are near PDX:

Advanced Hydraulic Supply
Directions
Address: 4444 NE 148th Ave, Portland, OR 97230
Hours: Opens 7AM Mon
Phone: (503) 289-0354

I have found other places as well, you should be able to find a walk in place and get them done without hassle.

I have mine mounted temporarily as shown. Once I have the subframe built, I will see if I need to change things around. I would be interested in seeing how you mounted yours if you have more pics or a build thread.
