Just wondering, how come all the AN fittings? The cooler lines are all fairly low pressure, like under 20psi or so. The normal push on hose with a clamp works just fine. I was running my twin tranmission cooler setup with just the rubber hoses clamped on. Or are you just doing it for looks? lol

Is it possible to take a pic up under the car? I don't recall the clearance between the trans and the tunnel. But if you unscrew the fittings off that hold on the hard line and bend it out of the way I can't picture why you can turn the other fittings out?

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/per...r-the-2gs.html

in this thread there are pics galore

as for a update. still havent been able to remove the OEM fittings while its in the air due to the very small gap to work in. i got some open wrenches i might try and then if that doesnt work,i will have to drop the tranny mount and angle it a bit when i do my engine mounts
