Tranny Cooler line question

I'm trying to cool a ford C6 using a stock (brand new replacement) radiator. What is the size of the threads on the upper nipple? Is it a regular -AN style fitting? Also, has anyone had any luck just running hose and aircraft clamps over the lower fitting?

Thanks,
Jay

Anyone? :dunno:

I think you think that we're smarter than we are. What are the odds that someone who reads this forum within a days time will know the fitting type and size of the radiator......and you haven't even said what vehicle the C6 and radiator are from.

Maybe............or not.

Sorry that my expectations were too high....although it was 6 days, not 1. The C6 is from an 86 Bronco, and has 1/4" NPT threads. My question concerned the radiator. The radiator is a stock replacement 91 XJ.....I guess I should have specified that, although if it wasn't an XJ model, I wouldn't have posted it on .

My bad.

The top fitting on the 89 - 90 radiator requires a 3/8 short Nut which should be available at most hardware stores - its the same nut used on most lines from oil tank to home oil burners. You will need to flare a piece of tubing if the original one is frozen to the nut (as the one I replaced last week was)
