What happens here
The presenter highlights a critical detail regarding transmission cooler line fittings: the older 4L80E models use two identical straight-threaded fittings with an O-ring base. He strongly warns against using pipe-threaded fittings, even if they appear to fit, as they can cause the transmission case to crack upon tightening. The importance of verifying the correct fitting type (straight thread with O-ring) for AN conversions is emphasized.
Goal: Identify and verify the correct type of AN fittings for transmission cooler lines.
