You're so like me; it pisses u off to pay a $10 S&H fee once, let alone twice.

05RST2NV, that parts list for a 60E.

so in this thread, it says the thread size is 5/8 inverted flare. I'm looking to buy one of these but all the ads for the tru cool 47391 say 3/8 inverted flare. Did they change it?

Anybody know who has the best price on these?

Great thread, what would be different for the 4l80e guys? Different treads on the trans or what?

Also any one looking to do this I have an extra brand new Tru-Cool 40k for sale.

3/8 is the size of the tube, 5/8 is the size of the threads. For ordering, you will need to order 5/8 18 inverted flare.

Just an FYI for some members who are new at this stuff. It is not Required that you buy any fittings to install the Tru-Cool Max 40kGVW.
All hardware supplied will allow you to install with no problems. I believe the main reason the OP purchased fittings in this case is to prevent the hose from Kinking by providing a steel bend.

I am doing this because apparently the hose I used this time around is not rated for trans fluid and is starting to degrade and leak slightly around the fittings....and those hardlines are damn annoying.
