Title: 700r4 trans line length?
Post by: gotsmeuhh350 on February 24, 2014, 10:44:23 am
I was just wondering if anyone knew how long the trans lines are. I've got a compression fitting on each line that's leaking, plus another leak on the clip of the oil pan. It's all ice and snow so I would like to spend the least amount of time under the truck as I can. Lol just so I can go in and get the right length the first time. If anyone knows it would save a lot of hassle. It's an 86 c15 rclb, 305 700r4. Thank you

     Are you wanting to replace them or fix them ?  It is kinda hard to know the exact length considering they are bent in several area's. 
     You can buy kits to bend your own to match, or just buy them pre-bent. 
     Or are you looking to just cut off the ends and fix them and see if there is enough length still to work that way ?  They do not leave much room on those lines to pull or stretch them out any.

I'd like to just replace them. I was just wondering if anyone had replaced them and knew what length they got is all. I was gonna get just straight tube and bend my own.

     In that case just hold on for awhile, there has been several members who have replaced their own lines with kits, give them a chance to see this thread and I am sure you will get a couple of answers of the kits they used and how much they needed, probably how much they had left over to.
