I am currently in the process of repairing a line on my 97 wrangler which is leaking right now. I called the dealer and they want 41 for the tube and then it has been redesigned so there are two connections that need to be ordered. One is 31 and the other is 8 bucks. The dealer can't get the parts for an entire week.... isn't that the way it always is with a dealer.

So the option that I am going to go with after reading some other sites is to take the line off and take it to an auto parts store and get a compression fitting. I will cut it at the hole and put the line back together with the compression fitting. I am below a novice mechanic and I am pretty sure that I can achieve this. So, the fix will be less than 10 dollars.

The line is easy to disconnect from the radiator but I am not sure about the connection of the line to the transmission. That will be the tricky part. However, even if I can't take it off at the transmission I can always cut it with it still connected to the transmission and repair it that way.

OOOORRRR why not just wrap a piece of rubber or neoprene hose around it and put a couple of gear clamps on it if it's just a leaking line.
