Default Transmission anti back flow valve

Just put in a new auto trans in my 01. I had to install a new trans cooler to have warranty on trans. I want to use the anti backflow valve but can't find a male nipple connector to screw on the existing backflow fitting. Any body know where I can get it? Dodge says they don't know.

Are you bypassing the in-radiator cooler?

Yes, The supplier of the transmission supplied a new larger cooler and I need to tie into a 3/8" rubber hose with the anti backflow valve. I've been to Dodge and all the auto supply store chains in the K.C. area and no one has had a fitting to hook up to the Valve or has given me any info on where to get one. Dodge says it is not a fitting used by them so they can't help me.

Just put the rubber hose directly on to the cooler line for the trans. Check valve is notorious for clogging up, and smoking transmissions anyway.
