    I spoke with the guy that made the lines and you would call that thread a 18×1.5 and said it's not AN it's metric and something about the 10 AN being where to o rings goes so apparently fitting by itself is 18×1.5

    Yes that is how it was made with a flange or lip that nut tightened up against sealing gasket on other side our oil cooler has a circle groove cut out where that o rings seats I believe I need to remove old o rings from that cooler since I put new on end of line

    At one point I ended up at the hardware store exploring options he said it's stainless steel braided line and wanted to use that over hydraulic line because of the heat factor

    Il have to see what he wrote on ticket he said it's metric 18 thread count let me get back to you on actual size 2 lines cost 180 here but I'm hoping they pay for themselves with a lack of my labor down the road

    Well here is what I ended up with from a local repair shop judging by the price I'd say they are good ones lol maybe il take the 90s off and the filter housing assemble that with gaskets and connect lines after after it's reinstalled???

    That's what sizes the kits are also but the napa JIC 3/8 nor 1/2 was not even all that close goin to a hydraulic guy after work that says he can get me fixed up then once I get tie rod replaced il get the old girl back on the road
  14. Grigsbilly91

    New to diesels and tooj on a 6.5 turbo diesel project

    Can you explain this napa has JIC and is having a hard time finding the size to match my fitting it's not 1/2 or 3/8 is an-6 metric and on the cooler side will it seal without the tip of line and I ring in before the nut

    Also is there different sizes or fittings the only one advanced showed and I bought id different size and my cooler line won't fit in there I might have to go the hydrologic route

    I'm just a bit concerned about the possible internal coolant leak I believe it has and want to do all I can for the engine as far as upgrades but not wanting to spend another dime until I drive awhile it sounds great I went to drive other night until I realized the tie rod was bent where someone...

    Ok attempted to fix oil cooler leak at block and couldn't find any o rings in the fitting and when I tried to put one on there I could get line back in fitting enough to place snap ring why would that threaded fitting go bad should I buy another one or is new o rings sufficient
