Tried to search but couldn't find a photo or a DIY. I know my lines are leaking but other than that I havent taken the time to really see whats what w/ regards to the fittings on the end of the lines.

Anyone shed any insight on this for me before I go out to my truck and start crawling around?

I am sure it will be self explanatory but just trying to get some homework done first.
Thanks!

Fill out your signature with truck information - year, modifications.... Look at other poster signatures for examples.


Slide back the plastic cover over the c-clip-shaped spring, then use a small screwdriver to pop the spring out of it’s groove.

Keep a finger on the spring because they can fly off

Once the spring is out, just pull and wiggle on the line until it comes out of the fitting.

With the line out put the spring back into its groove so you don’t lose it

The line will snap right back into place when you’re done, even with the spring their.

Be careful of o-rings when re-installing.

I've not removed the aft end of the trans lines so I'm no help their.
