What are the threads on the cooler line on the brass connections on the tranny? Not the ones that screw in the case, but the ones that the lines actually screw into?
 
Into the case is 1/4" NPT. Into the fitting is some weird inverse oring metric. I have extra one's I'll sell ya.
 
Let me take a picture tonight and show which fittings I have.
 
If your trying to get fitting to reroute the lines just cut the lines after the bend and use a tubing adapter. Thats what i did to put my tranny cooler on with.

It is just a double inverted flar. Nothing special. If you have a flare kit you can do it with no problem. I had one of the lines crack right were the first bend is comming out of the case and had to just part of the line were there was a bend to be it to all work. But its just a double inverted flare.
 
Thanks. I might cut the lines, I haven't decided. I guess I could pick up a flare tool also. What about a compression fitting on it?
 
Well one problem i ran into trying to just get a fitting was the line end up right at the front drive shaft.

If you have an old line you can just cut a bend out of it and use the flare tool. I tried everything and the easiest way i could find to get it to work was to just cut the original line and just a tubing adapter. I will take some pics and show you.

Thats what i used to get the lines hooked up to the tranny. I just cut the stock line about 3" after the bend.
