2001 Chevy Silverado Transmission Lines
A friend just had a transmission line pull out of his radiator and blow fluid all over everything.
How do these lines work? Are the kind of like the fuel lines that just plug in and are held in my a retainer clip? Does the whole radiator have to be changed to fix it or can the "fitting" be turned out of the radiator and replaced? Looking at the line that is still in the radiator, the fitting looks like a large hex nut at the radiator with a thick rubber washer on the outside. Thanks!

Re: 2001 Chevy Silverado Transmission Lines
No the radiator didn't have to be replaced. The cooling line is held in to the fitting with a wire clip, and the wire clip broke. Autozone sells a similar fitting, but the thread size was too small. I was able to steal the clip out of the new fitting and use it to fix the old one.
I screwed it back into the radiator, pushed the line in until it clicked, and it was good to go!
