The trans cooler line runs under the radiator to a seperate cooler mounted in front of the radiator. Two rubber lines run down to a connection with the steel lines. The pin hole is just after the connection. I was thinking to entend the length of the rubber hose but, the question is, will it hold under normal operation?
