Is there any way to get these off without dropping the tranny?? I just can't see a way to get a wrench up there.
Anyone have any tricks?? :-?

I'm probably just going to use the junction for the feed line under the oilpan and run a braided line to the cooler up front until I find the need to drop the tranny. :-?

My exhaust is cut out. The lines are up in the tranny hump, and I can't really see a way of getting a wrench up there. Seems awfully tight. :-?

Yeah it can be done.
I do it with a crows foot and a wobble extension.
Just make sure you are square on the fittings before putting the torque to it.
I learned the hard way and rounded a set off once.
Now that mnine are AN fittings with angled endes it is MUCH easier.
That and the SS braided line lets the trans drop down without binding up with anything else.

nevermind, looked it up.
I'll go buy a set of those this week.
You wouldn't happen to know the size, would you??

Yeah, it's 1/2"... Another tool you can use *sometimes* is a "tappet" wrench. It is thin and very long. However as Jas mentioned above, a crows foot and wooble extension are your best bet to get it off without rounding the fitting off.
