Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Looking for aluminised tubing for trans.

[JFaughn]

Mine wore through and I've been looking for a source for the tubing to make my own , but haven't found a source for the line , anybody know where to find ?

 

[nick05]

if it's for the fluid lines just use some brake or fuel line. what's the aluminized for?

The reason is ,that is whats there and for patching until I get new trans, and I haven't found any that measures 1/2" OD .

i have been makin up new ones out of hydraulic lines. this works kinda slick. you have to make a few hangers for them but i couldn't find 1\2" anything except copper tubing. i loved hydraulic lines back when i did demo derbies and i still think this is a good option for the dodge.

Hay ballpeen , you mean hose I think , being thats its winter and we're in the middle of getting 9" snow , thats one of the reasons that I do not want to use hose , a lot of time under a truck dripping salty water in a snow bank , no inside place to work , also want to get a good solid connection till spring with a patch so I'm probubly going with copper tubing becouse the diamentions match .
