I did it now

Hit some ice and got the guard rail, the front bumper took most of the hit. No body damage. But I think I crack the radiator and bend the two line going into the bottom of it. What are these lines?

Tranny cooler lines.......

 

[satcom40]

I thought the Tranny has it 's own system

 

[LEB Ben]

Sorry...maybe you're right, I was just assuming, most of what I've seen when two hard lines go in to a radiator, they trace back to the tranny. Have you tried tracing the hardlines in question?

 

[satcom40]

Does someone have a drawing of front section of the truck showing cooler line

 

[satcom40]

No it cold out and I don't like laying on the ground but may try later today

[blacksnapon]

[satcom40]

OK Thanks Call the body shop Said to come in on Monday. Is it easy to replace them. Just the line on the radiator to the filter or is all the way back to the tanny

 

[blacksnapon]

from the filter to the radiator.

 

[satcom40]

Ok here,s a question for the Tech. If you look a the picture can you till if the radiator has ben push back. I drove it home, no pwer lost so I don't think I damage the charge air cooler. What you think. Thanks for all the help.

Hard to tell by the pics but the radiator looks to be in the proper place. I wouldn't drive to much with the tranny cooler lines pinched like that who knows how much if any flow your getting.
