clbarclay Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Winches and standard auto box cooler locations don't mix so the cooler needs moving an new flexible pipes making. What sort of fittings do the coolers use, what thread are they? I asked my local hydraulics place, but they drew a blank. To be fair I probably got the wrong person there, he though the length of origional I had with me was brake pipe to start with and I'm not sure he understood that it wasn't even when I told him. If I know what standard of fittings the coolers take then I might get a more constructive answer out of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishbosh Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Despite having done this job, I can't recall what size the pipes are. I just took one of the originals down to the hydraulics place and asked them to make me one up in flexi. Make sure you read Orange's thread on this topic of you haven't already.

clbarclay Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 I looked at that thread, but it appears the fittings used on the pipes there were female and also had another cooler in rad. Mine is a 3.5 and only has the furry sausage cooler and the pipes to that have male fittings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishbosh Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Haha! A new name for the bog brush cooler!! Excellent!! My bog brushes are male threaded with a concave fitting to recieve the male convex fitting on the hoses which also have to female threaded nut on... if any of that makes any sense... But mine is also a 3.9 with in rad cooler.... You could still take the bits to a hydraulics place...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
