97 5.2l Radiator/Transmission Line leak
 

Been leaking transmission fluid from the radiator. I had it looked at and was quoted over 500 dollars. Gonna tackle this one myself. Question is. Does anyone have a guide on doing a radiator? I've never done one before. I also noticed when looking for the radiator I see options for with or without a transmission cooler. Where do I look to determine this?

If you are leaking trans fluid at the radiator, then you have the trans cooler in there. Where is it leaking at? Can you post a pic?

I can in a bit. Its on the front passenger side right underneath transmission line. Every time I park after driving it there is a puddle of tranny fluid.

It might just be the o-rings, which are replaceable. (and cheap.....)

Depends on where it is leaking.

If it is the radiator and lines. How tough of a job is it. Are there any guides or walk throughs anywhere?

Figure out where it is leaking from. Then decide how hard it is to fix.

I looked all over last night and couldnt pin point the leak. Might have to take it in.

So looks like a new radiator. Whoever put the lines in last cross threaded it bad.
