OIL COOLANT LINESI have a question for car smart people is it hard to install oil cooler lines for an oldsmobile bravada?
You should be able to get the lines bent at most automotive stores, especially if you take your old ones in. If your adding an external transmission cooler for towing it takes a little extra plumbing, but it's not too hard really.I have a question for car smart people is it hard to install oil cooler lines for an oldsmobile bravada?
Not really. Just make sure the hoses aren't touching, rubbing metal edges, and aren't kinked. Running the cooler from the lower trans line gives a more cooling effect since it's been 'cooled' somewhat in the radiator. Use high pressure hose and double clamp them.
sometimes - BUT the lines need 2 b PRESSURE Hoses with crimped ends - not just hoses !
';Hard'; is a relative term. What may be hard or difficult for you may be easily done by someone else!

You decide if it is ';hard'; or easy.
oil cooler lines from the oil filter adapter to the radiator are'nt too hard although to disconnect them from the radiator you may need a special tool.However,from the filter adapter to the engine these can be tough due to clearance issues around the motor mount.You will have to rais the motor slightly to remove and install the lines.Do yourself a favor,and replace the mount,besides it's probably already shot anyway.


P.S. Not making sure the mount is good will put undue stress on the lines causing them to leak prematurely.
YES! It's certainly not brain surgery, but you will need some extensions and some good aim with them, and god forbid that you have to do it on the ground. I don't even know if I could, and I certainly wouldn't want to, even though I've done tons of them on a lift. You'll be able to do it if you really want to, but you'll be sore, for sure. I'd spend the money for a professional to do it. Something that is especially critical is getting the oil filter adaptor back on without damaging the O-ring. This is the hardest part of the gig and one you don't want to have to keep doing over again.
