Trans cooler lines

Hey, my trans cooler lines and starting to leak a little and I'd like to fix it. Can I just buy some lines off of RockAuto or is there something special with them?

How / Where are they leaking? Are the line(s) ruptured, or are they loosing fluid at the fitting?

Might be as simple as just snugging up the fitting with a wrench.

I looked at it vaguely and it appears to be running along the line that goes from the cooler itself. I'll have to look at it in more detail after work.

Resurrecting an old thread of mine...

One of the cooler lines must of had a rupture at some point because there is about a 3" length of rubber hose connecting one of the lines together. It's leaking at that point. This isn't something I'd want to break while taking it on a road trip.
