where to buy oil lines
I would really like to replace my oil lines with aeroquip lines, but I dont really have the time to find all the fittings. So, whats the best place to find quality replacement oil cooler lines for a 95 Blazer at a good price?

A good price for oil lines? your kidding right. Mine just went on me and I replaced them with compression fittings and hydrolic hoses. Not a very fun job to do.

Well I want to replace them with hydraulic or aeroquip stainless, but I dont have the time and money. I've found aftermarket stock replacements for about $50 each. I was wondering if anybody has found them cheaper. The aftermarket stock ones claim to have fixed the shotty crimps that came from the factory, 2-year warranty money back for leaks.

Nothing good is cheap, and nothing cheap is good

The factory had double crimps, the replacements should have 3 crimps to fix the leak issue. Even the factory realized the problem and now sells the 3 crimp lines.
I will be doing the same as Jman. JMan, post up some tips, rather as much info as you can. Thanks!!

Tips! Sorry no tips, nothing about it was easy. To replace the lines with factory parts, the drivers side of the motor has to be lifted. The way I did it, I didn't have to raise the motor, but it was still a pain. With some carefull manipulation of the new lines I was able to cram it all back in there. Haven't yet replaced the upper portion of the lines but I plan on it.
I took a pic of the new lines. I'll try to post it tonight after work.
I checked girlfriends blazer yesterday and her lines are going to need replacing soon as well.

I got lucky with my 2wd, no motor lifting at all. 45 minutes from start to sweep... Dorman Oil cooler lines can be orderded from any Murrays auto parts store. $38.00 is what I paid for mine.
Ya'll have fun now, ya hear...............
