Hi Jack,

I like to use either 5/16 or 3/8" steel brake lines (depending on the transmission), cut to length and use double flared or stout compression fittings to tie in. If you want to gauge the temperature of the transmission oil, grab it at that ‘out’ port of the tranny. This is where it is the hottest.

Like I was telling Bob, I used to rebuild up there in North Dakota. They have some very high temperature summers and the winters are at the opposite side of the coin, often at 30 below or better for weeks on end.

Those guys are experts on towing with automatic transmissions; they see both sides of the question.
