6.0 trans cooler install using 6.0 lines with pics

Just finished installing my 6.0 trans cooler. I used the factory 6.0 lines to do this project. The first pic is the drivers side I cut the 6.0 line which is 1/2" and also cut my stock line which is 3/8" and used a stainless 1/2 to 3/8 compression fitting to join the two. The second pic is the pass side , I got a 1/2" Magnafine filter and put it in the return line going back to the trans. After the filter I transitioned back to the 3/8" line with a 1/2" to 3/8" barbed fitting. I liked this setup because it seems to be alot cleaner and stock looking.

Yes alot cleaner , the 6.0 lines are already bent to fit perfectly no need for angles and messing around.
