I just went to the parts store and got regular tranny hose. Nothing special about it.

Can't help you there... just make sure whatever you buy is rated for trans fluid.

Here is a link you might find interesting. Seems the hose needs to be rated for about 250 degrees. (on edit) The sae30r9 is rated to 275 degrees. Still looking for the specs on it.

Pete,
well that is the same number I got (J1532), but Im confused about the automatic transmission fluid they mention: A, B, AT, and BT?, wich one is of our transmissions: maybe AT (-40 to 302 degrees F)?

Thanks amigo.

Seems to me either one will be OK for the cooler.



This SAE Standard covers four types of hose for use with automatic transmission fluid.

A, B, AT, and BT.

Type A and Type B are for use within a temperature range of -40 to 125 degrees C (-40 to 257 degrees F).

Types AT and BT are for use within a temperature range of -40 to 150 degrees C (-40 to 302 degrees F). Recommended maximum operating pressure for Type A and Type AT hose is 1.7 MPa (250 psi).

While recommended maximum operating pressure for Type B and Type BT hose is 1.0 MPa (150 psi). The lower pressure (Types B and BT) hose is for auxiliary cooler applications only.

The reference fluid for tests requiring the use of automatic transmission fluid shall be Dexron-II E/Mercon or equivalent.
