89 camaro trans cooler lines????

My transmission cooler lines just burst today right at the radiator, I've been searching some local auto part stores, repair shops, and dealerships. No one has pre-bent lines anywhere the best I can get is only one place having straight lines. Does anyone by chance know of a place that would have them, or perhaps give me some advice to repairing the problem? This is my Main car and it sucks having to hoof it to work each day.

Re: 89 camaro trans cooler lines????

your car is 20 years old, they dont keep parts that long. take off the old line, buy the straight line. take it into a shop and have them bend it the same way, put new fittings on it, and its done. drop it off in the morning and pick it up on the way home. install with a beer in the evening and drive to work the next day.
such is the life of a 3rd gen addict. get used to it. it would be cheaper and less frustrating to be a drug addict, but not even close to as much fun.

Re: 89 camaro trans cooler lines????

LOL true that, what frustrates me the most is that I had this problem once before on my project car (67 Ford mustang) and I got the lines in the same day no prob.... about the straight lines, do they normally come threaded? I haven't had much time to research this the line broke 15min before work so I had to drop and run.
