Default Oil Cooler Lines

Just wondering if I would have to remove engine mounts to get to that oil line that runs to the engine block.

I posted in another forum 2 days ago, but still no responces, and since nobody has responded, I just made a new post.

Both of my lines are leaking and needing some insight to what I need to do to get to these (what to do, and not to do)

Thanks!

(shes still running!)

You may need to unbolt a mount to get enough clearance to get the line out,

Listen I have just finished fixing my oil line leaks. I have replaced them before with them starting to leak again in less than a year. I have a solution for you and you need not pull any lines or replace. Send me a private message with your your contact info and I will let you know what to do. It is to involved to sit here and type it out and must be done correctly.

Can anyone tell me where to buy the Oil Cooler Lines from?

@Harley745 - What does "fixing" them involve?

I'm having trouble identifying the ones i need. I can't seem to find the exact one. Is there a sure-fire way of identifying exactly what part I need? They keep asking if I have 4wd or heavy-duty cooling. no on the first and no clue on latter. The idea that i dont have original engine is becoming more prevalent every time i do something to this truck.Thanks

Harley, I would appreciate if you spent the time typing out your solution... As I am having the same issues.
