I got a small oil leak from lines running in front of radiator I took some pics what are those lines and what cause them too leak?

Dumajones

That would be a leaky tranny cooler. What causes them to leak, that hose clamp might be loose in the pic. Start by looking at that clamp see if you can get a little more crimp down, Now not to much just a little more. You don't want to have the hose clamp cut into the hose. it might of already, that is why it is leaking. Check you transmission fluid make sure its full.

Can you just replace the trans cooler if it's not the clamps or do you have to replace whole radiator didn't know if it was one big piece or what

Dumajones

yes,,, you can just replace the trans cooler..

I suspect the hoses are leaking, not the cooler. You can buy the hoses, just make sure you get hoses for the purpose. Rubber fuel hose won't last very long.

Is there 2 hoses? I thought bout just ordering all new hoses I like to fix it while I'm already started

Bustedback

Two hoses.

Does local part store carry them or dealer item

Bustedback

You can buy it as bulk hose at most parts stores. Pull the grille off and you'll get a better look at the hoses.

From the crud built up on the radiator, it looks like it's been leaking for a while. Be sure to clean that stuff off.
