Just the darn spellcheck..........tite not title........had to override it even this time! Best to you and thanks for paying so much attention. Sorry you aren't familiar enough with this topic to know that it is LOCKTITE! Wrench on.

The most obvious reason NOT to attempt to remove the transmission cooling line fittings from the bottom of the radiator is that they are meant to be permanent and are actually line clips NOT threaded fittings. Once you unscrew them from the radiator, you will play hell getting anything threaded back into the radiator tank loop they came out of because it will no doubt move and not be accessible through the hole the retainer fitting came out of.

About those fittings... I have replaced many of those radiator fittings, with new ones, without any problem. Do I worry the rad will leak after? Hell yeah! Always relieve the rad pressure first before attempting removal of the fitting. That seems to work. Also replace one fitting at a time to help hold the cooler in place. Never has the inside cooler dropped, yet. Just a little tid bit of experience.
