Is tranny fluid from/to the cooler always the same pressure? While idle? While climbing hills? etc? I just changed the cooler lines and am skeptical of the dang quick disconnects on the tranny. They aren't leaking now, or around the block; but I don't want them to start squirting when I climb a hill.
Thanks!

I have the chance to buy a 1992 xj 4x4 straight 6 with 80k original miles. Near perfect condition and new tires. All for 1500. Is this a good deal? How much do they usually sell for?

80k? Original Engine? That's a damn good find if it's original miles. How much are they asking?

I think when in 4 wheel drive the tranny lines do get a bit hotter than usual. I'm in the same situation, I had to cut some tranny line and put powersteering hose to replace a tranny leak in that line. I just flared it out and put a hose clamp. Tightened the ***** out of it

Thanks Dukie and Adrian. I've driven it around the block, gotten it hot, manually shifted around the neighborhood, and it hasn't leaked. I guess i'll take it for a little jog up a hill tonight.

I cheated with mines. If the flare is off but the brackets are still intacked, more or less, unbolt them from behind and attached them to flares then bolt everything back on to jeep

Does that mean my antenna isn't grounded properly??
Is it a shielding coax wire?
