I just got done swapping out my rubber lines for the SS braided set-up. It was very easy and I have to say, I love the way it looks. If anyone needs part numbers for any of this stuff, let me know...

Here's the stuff I used...

I swapped out the filter mount that came with the Summit Remote Trans Filter kit for this one. The Summit one had 1/4" ports and this one has 1/2" ports...

This is what the compression fittings that adapt the hard lines to the AN fittings looks like...

Everything went together very well and when I leak-checked all the fittings there wasn't even a hint of fluid.

Very nice and blingadocious. Do you use your truck for a DD?

Thanks. Right now it's my DD, but I plan to get something else very soon. I want to get an old diesel truck to use as a DD and a trailor. Then I'll keep the Lightning garaged most of the time and tow it when I go to the track or to the tuner. That's my plan anyway...

It's together. I took those pics before I threw the grille back on. I did the work at the hobby shop on base.
