Somebody mentioned not to forget the hose clamps... Don't forget to check the fluid level when you are done. I just put my tru-cool max on my X yesterday. I figured there was a tranny cooler in the radiator but there was also one between the rad and intercooler. The tru-cool makes 3, no hot tranny for me i guess. You know what I mean. Can't wait to get all of the other goodies on.

To the OP - You probably will not find a brass 3/8 - 1/2 hose barb unless you go to a real hardware/plumbing store and then it is still doubtful but you can build it. Even my tru-cool fittings had to be put together.

I tried that on another car and it wasn't good. Had to double clamp it and still it leaked. 3/8 is easy. Go to truck shops for the 1/2 if you have to.
